Rock's Backpages has a free Lee section at the moment (dunno for how long)

A COWBOY IN NEW YORK — Wyndham Wallace recalls his first encounter with the legendary Lee Hazlewood in 1999 and NME's Tony Stewart talks Nancy Sinatra and more with Lee in 1971. PLUS exclusive audio of "the ol' sonofabitch" talking about his early years in Oklahoma… That last is an epic mp3 talk with/to/at Barney Hoskyns. You gotta go here and scroll down through this vast trove of freebies, also register, but it worked pretty well for me: http://www.rocksbackpages.com/Library/Free

Really enjoyed that article. His push 'n' pull affection for the landscape of petroleum refineries and Methodists adds a bit of new understanding to his eccentricities.

For a long time I thought that the Belly song “Sweet Ride” was a Lee Hazlewood composition bc I’m absolutely certain I saw it erroneously credited as such somewhere. As is clear from this new comp, Lee’s “Sweet Ride” is an entirely different song. Funnily enough though, Belly’s song sounds very much like it could be a Hazlewood tune.
My pick for underrated Hazlewood composition is “In Our Time,” recorded by him and later, with bowdlerized lyrics, by Nancy Sinatra.

"For A Day Like Today" was my top Spotify song a couple of years ago.
You probably already knew this, but the Sweet Ride film had another perspective theme song written & recorded by Moby Grape which they mime to in the film.
