News travels slow in Hanalei, so I just found out that Lee Hazlewood passed away over the weekend (Guardian obit). Supergenius. Here’s my favorite Hazlewood song.

Lee Hazlewood & Nancy Sinatra - Some Velvet Morning

(I first heard it done by Lydia Lunch & Rowland S. Howard on their album Honeymoon In Red — I wanted to post that version too, but I can only find a crappy mp3 right now. You can find it on itunes or emusic, though.)
