Now you're probably thinking I'm writing about major record companies and their unscrupulous executives_ and lawyers.

You could be right_ but this time_ YOU'RE WRONG! I'm describing the characters in my album `13' _Some I knew_ some I invented _ some are true_ some are false_ some I liked_ some I didn't.

But they all had a story to tell and I told it_none of `em seem to care_ and I don't either_ have fun_" - Lee Hazlewood "He (Lee) took my voice off the album and put his voice on the album.

Now don't forget these were in my keys, it was my charts, it was my everything. Lee Hazlewood was not even remotely going to be considered as an artist for this album and that's the way he wanted it." - Larry Marks The album 13 was never supposed to be a Lee Hazlewood album.

It is perhaps the strangest record in one of the most varied discographies in music. The Bombastic brass heavy funk, deep blues and soul paired with Hazlewood's subterranean baritone would be best enjoyed with a tall Chivas in an off-strip seedy Vegas lounge.

By 1972 Lee Hazlewood had settled in his new homeland of Sweden. His days were spent carousing, making movies with Torbjörn Axelman and releasing albums.

To keep up his prolific recorded output, Lee began to mine the recently defunct LHI Records archives for material.

One such gem, was an unreleased album by Larry Marks (LHI producer, artist and the voice of the first Scooby-Doo theme).

Larry's concept was to take Hazlewood's strongest compositions and arrange them in a soul vibe.

An album was completed, but with no distribution in America and no funding, Lee had no vehicle to release Larry's record.

The tapes were taken to Sweden, Larry's voice was wiped and Hazlewood's was dubbed_ 13 was born.
