Cowboy Psychedelia
A genre of country pop music whose main, and perhaps only practitioner was Lee Hazelwood. Best known for having written and produced the 1966 Nancy Sinatra US/UK #1 hit, "These Boots Are Made for Walkin', Hazlewood released several albums before moving to Stockholm, Sweden where he wrote and produced the one hour television show Cowboy in Sweden, which also later emerged as an album in 1970.
Here's a clip of the show featuring the song Pray Them Bars Away
Today's track, "Hey Cowboy" is a conversation between a tall Swedish Goddess and a little cowboy, out of place in the land of the midnight sun.
