What's The Connection? Boots 2

This continuation of the Boots Connection has several versions of one song: These Boots Are Made For Walking. I know it as a Lee Hazlewood song that Nancy Sinatra made famous. There are probably hundreds of versions of this song, but I picked from the ones I have. Obviously not all of them. There are a couple I really like. One being the British Electric Foundation with Paula Yates. Paula was married to Bob Geldoff (who you should know) and also had affairs with Michael Hutchence (INXS) and Terrence Trent D'Arby and Rupert Everett. I guess she got around. I don't care but she had a tragic life and death. I only wish she would have sang on more songs. I love her version of this. I am not from the UK so I never watched her show on the Tube. So that was never impressive to me. I also like the Bay Area band Big Hair. Unfortunately they didn't record much. One of their spin offs was Whistling Bullets and they recorded a little and it was good. Old or new, sweet or raunchy, this song is pretty darn good. Notice, no Nancy (get that from two days ago Boots WTC).

What's The Connection? Boots 1

One of my favorite Boots songs is by Nancy Sinatra and she's on this Connection, but believe it or not that's not the song that started me on the path of this WTC. It was of all people: Candyman. His song when it came out with the multiple samples was controversial, but popular. He was discovered by Tone Loc (who did an intro on the song) I had the original 12 inch of the song. It sampled, Rose Royce, who I loved. And Brick and Betty Wright and even Doug E Fresh. Great song. Anyways, I hadn't heard it in awhile, so I dug it out and decided to make a What's The Connection around it. What I found is that I had a ton of Nancy Sinatra covers (so I will do another volume of Boots with all those) and I a bunch of cool songs, so probably yet another volume of the ones that didn't fit on here. I had to put Nancy on here since I like that song so much, but none of the rest are covers of that song.
