Nancy Sinatra to release new album

73-year old Nancy Sinatra, the former popstar daughter of the legendary Frank Sinatra, will release a new album in December.

Nancy Sinatra digs into her archives to unearth 15 never-before released recordings on Shifting Gears, out December 3 via Boots Enterprises.

Sinatra has spent over five years restoring and remixing these masters from her vault, of which she says gItfs been a real struggle because when we say evaultf we really mean egarage,f which is where the tapes were for decades before we had the vault. Some were multi-track, some were 1/4 inch and some were only cassettes!h

The original tracks were produced and arranged by Billy Strange with the compilation produced by Michael Lloyd. Cover art (above) is by the artist Shag.

The songs are described as big ballads with sources from Broadway of the 1920Œs to pop hits of the 70Œs. Sinatra has said that she sequenced the songs to tell the story of a love affair.
