OK, Tom, the Queen of Rockabilly is on my 1969 list now.

She made the Rock & Roll hall of fame in April 2009 as an early influence. In the late 70s - early 80's we called this crossover-country, and I loved it - always beautiful arrangements backing the singers.

She first recorded in 1954 and was working on an album this year. She has created quite an impressive body of work over the past 55 years.

The mellow side of Wanda Jackson. I absolutely love her version of "Candy Man" I think it's better than Orbisons. If you have it, could you post it?

[ILoveJenni47]

I don't think I have that one. If I do find it sometime though in my collection, I will post it.

Could you post "In the Middle of a Heartache " ??

[ILoveJenni47]

I may post it someday, somehow it wasn't included with my other Wanda recordings, although I do have it somewhere.

I prefer the original but wanda jackson has a great voice so its still nice to hear,

Thanks for sharing

I haven't heard Wanda's song. She has a really nice voice and does a good job on this treasure. Thanks for sharing.

You're very welcome!

For my (devalued) 2 cents, this version, to the extent it's different, doesn't add much. The simple and unadorned tone of the original by Garnett (made somehow sweeter by the fact that she never was considered a "star") is more comforting to the ear.
