Jackson, Wanda
The Capitol Years 1956-1963
Wanda Jackson is a true pioneer of American popular music. One of the first women in history to record country and western music, as well as rock'n'roll, and a brief romantic liaison with Elvis. This collection reminds of the greatness of her peak years at Capitol Records. From the mournful twists of 'Sinful Heart,' to the hard-rocking thrills of 'Let's Have A Party' and 'Riot In Cell Block Number Nine,' Wanda Jackson attacks the material in her distinctive way, with a wry glance at innocence left somewhere behind. All hail the Queen, and long may she reign! Comes on clear vinyl. SIDE 1: 01. Half As Good A Girl 02. Silver Threads And Golden Needles 03. Let Me Explain 04. Did You Miss Me? 05.
