I discovered Wanda Jackson last week and i really love her music! So I asked my dad if he knew who Wanda Jackson is and he said that he seen her live here in Sweden. Haha then I asked him 100 questions about it ;D
More '50s rock and roll by female singers: "Jump And Shout" by Erline "Rock And Roll" Harris, "Oh Babe" by Kay Starr, "Real Lovin' Mama" by Floyd Dixon and Mari Jones, "Rockin' And Jumpin'" by Honey Brown, "The Walkin' Blues" aka "Walk Right In" by Fluffy Hunter, "Rock City Boogie" by Ernie Ford and the Dinning Sisters, "Drill Daddy Drill" by Dorothy Ellis, "Mr. Low Love" by Terry Timmons.
I've always loved her music, I had one of her albums when I was in the Air Force in the 60's and I played it to death. Let's have a party was my favorite.
She was too wicked sexy for her time--they could barely deal with Elvis; no way was America going to elevate a woman who commands the stage like she does here. America's loss!
@TheCatgirl6 what do you mean america could barely deal with elvis? talk about distorting history, elvis was the white singer the big companies were looking for since chuck berry was rocking years and years before. if anything elvis made black music acceptable in society.
@kawadamark How old are you, dear? Never mind. It's you who are distorting history--Elvis did indeed make black music acceptable for white audiences, but there were many MANY white Americans (older folks and authority figures especially) who viewed "Elvis the Pelvis" as a threat to the social order precisely for that reason and because his unapologetic sexiness was seen as overt and unsettling. This is what I meant by America being barely able to deal with him, and Wanda not at all.
@TheCatgirl6 Agreed, but my point was just because Elvis wasn't liked by the older upper class it doesn't mean he was the responsible for the threat to the social order, in fact he was promoted by the big companies because it allowed a revolution between the norms, instead of the black musicians who wrote his songs and had as much attitude as he had
@kawadamark You are still missing MY point. I don't mean older people didn't like Elvis personally--how many of them knew Elvis? or had actually even met him? Anyone who is new and different in a provocative way, especially in an era as deeply conformist and casually racist as was 1950s America, is usually seen as challenging the acceptable norm. And that element alone was part of Elvis's appeal for younger audiences; their parents didn't get Elvis, didn't like him or his music.
@kawadamark And the music establishment had zero interest in social revolutions, musical or otherwise. Then and now it's all about profit. They promoted Elvis because his appeal was so explosive and sold so many records--teenagers hadn't reacted so fervently to a popular singer since the days of Sinatra and the bobby-soxers. Big companies saw the opportunity to make millions off Elvis Presley; his making black music (and performers) "safe" for white America was strictly incidental.
@shaftsbury94 That is not just "some fellah", that is Joe Maphis.............."The King of the strings". Joe made the double necked guitar famous. His were made by Mosrite Guitar Co. in Bakersfield, CA.
Just saw Wanda on a local University Public Access channel here in Oklahoma.She looks great & is doing well.Her mother just passed in hr 90's so I think will we will Wanda for some time to come :)
@amnaki He is not only a great guitar player, it is Joe Maphis. Look up "Pickin' and Singin'" on YouTube and you'll see him play guitar, banjo, mandolin, bass AND fiddle. Like Roy Smeck, it seems that he stayed at the talent store longer than most. Oh, and he could sing, too! I believe that the guitar in this shot was custom built for him by the Mosrite company.
Love this song...it ROCKS!...She was way ahead of her time!...
I'm named after her...my parents said as they were driving to the hospital, they heard her on the radio, so named me Wanda (I don't know why they would listen to the radio when they were rushing to the hospital? LOL).
Man this is a great clip! Wanda is 72 now. And she is STILL rockin'. She learned Rockabilly from Elvis, and has been a terrific influence on many others. Listen to YouTube "Hard Headed Woman - Wanda Jackson and Imelda May" if you want to see/hear yesterday and today in Rockabilly!
@iciavosser Actually, when they were touring together in 1955, Elvis taught Wanda how to integrate rock with the country she was already singing to sing "rockabilly" . She talks about this on her "I Forgot To Remember" video, also on youtube. They dated for awhile and I always thought they would have made a great team (singing and in life) if only he had ended up with her instead of Priscilla.
Nice gem...thanks for posting. Somehow I was not aware of Wanda Jackson...however after watching the video this quote came to mind: [About Fred Astaire] "Sure he was great, but don't forget Ginger Rogers did everything he did backwards . . . and in high heels!"
Wonda is the best, Her music will never die out or fade away because it's so fantastic and was way ahead of it's time then to be sang by a chick. I love music and get insperation everywhere i'm 22 and wanda is one of my biggest influance's in my writing and preforming. Her and Elvis rocked together (as much as i love Precilla, though!) they were one COOL couple and i wish i'd met them together. But next time Wanda's here in the UK i've gotta be there!!!!
The name of this song is "Hard headed woman", it's quite a simmilar tune to "Let's have a party" but both fab ssongs by the greatest rockabilly chick EVER!
@Gaygarious I don't think Elvis ever looked like that. I think that dress was made of asbestos so it wouldn't self combust. I love Wanda Jackson! She.s COOL..
First and only time I saw this was in the Country Music HoF in Nashville when I went transatlantic for the first time.... was stunned - sign of those times that there weren't more women doing this when clearly the talent was around.... ace stuff.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
( lol ) She really was the female Elvis, and for both good and bad. Despite Wanda having the voice and the looks, after viewing this one can clearly see that Rock is a man's genre. It's just too tailor-made for the male species, and it renders women awkward and pretty embarrassing when they get involved with it.
"Samson told Delilah loud & claer, 'Keep your cottonpickin fingers out ma curly hair ho ho yeah! ' " Now that 's O-riginal scripture - rrreal rrreligin !!!!!
How did I miss this gal - I just seen her and heard of her tonight for the first time! It's so good to see a real cool woman, you know...just cool. Has it all and doesn't have to try cos she's free. Where are they now? I've always loved singing songs that are performed by men and it's good to see her takin a male vocal with such ease and put as much rawness in so easily. Wow. You learn something new.....
Hard headed woman is a thorn in a side of a man. WOW. Never could make that part out when Elvis sang it. This gal was ahead of her time. She should have been huge.
she actually is huge. she is one of the few to have number ones on the pop rock and country charts. but i knoe what you mean i never heard of her until i saw her last week live and she still got it!
A second Elvis championed her for the R-n-R HOF. Elvis Costello wrote a letter saying he was ashamed of his own induction ahead of Wanda and I can't help but suspect he helped get her enshrined, albiet later than she deserved.
cool :)
