Lee Hazlewood Industries / “There’s a Dream I’ve Been Saving 1966-1971”

By Paul Sinclair

Light In The Attic records have put together a very lavish box set commemorating the legacy of Lee Hazlewood Industries from 1966 – 1971.

Lee Hazlewood was an American singer, songwriter and producer. He wrote and produced the 1966 hit These Boots Are Made For Wakin’ for Nancy Sinatra and shortly after formed Lee Hazlewood Industries (LHI).

The core of There’s A Dream I’ve Been Saving 1966-1971 is a four-CD anthology of the LHI label which include many Hazlewood songs, covers, duets and songs by other artists signed to the label (see full track listing below). In addition a DVD is included which features the never-before-released 1970 film Cowboy in Sweden on DVD (made while Hazlewood was living in Sweden in the early 1970s) and most impressively this set comes with a 172 page LP sized hardcover book, that tells the story of LHI via rare photographs and interviews with the likes of Lee and singer Suzi Jane Hokum.

Although it already sounds quite impressive there is a Deluxe Edition of the box set that contains all of the above and houses it in a cloth-bound clamshell box with reproductions of LHI-era artifacts including press photos and a reproduction plane ticket used by Hazlewood back in ‘70. The real attraction with the deluxe box is that it comes with three further data DVDs which include just about every 45 single and every LP ever released on LHI — around 17 albums and 72 singles, totalling 305 songs. The are supplied in in both WAV and MP3 formats.
