Our Take

Buckle up, music aficionados, because we're taking a trip down memory lane with Wanda Jackson's "The Capitol Years 1956-1963." This numbered edition on clear vinyl is like finding a diamond in a haystack of mediocre albums.

From the moment the needle drops on the grooves, you're transported to a time when rock 'n' roll was rebellious and full of attitude. Jackson's vocals are a force to be reckoned with, blending country twang with rockabilly swagger. It's like Dolly Parton met Elvis Presley at a punk rock show and decided to make music together.

The songs on this album are a testament to Jackson's versatility as an artist. From the infectious energy of "Let's Have a Party" to the heart-wrenching balladry of "Right or Wrong," each track showcases her incredible range and emotion.

The production quality on this clear vinyl edition is top-notch, allowing every instrument and vocal flourish to shine through with crystal clarity. It's like listening to Jackson perform live in your own living room, complete with a front-row seat to her rock 'n' roll magic.

In conclusion, "The Capitol Years 1956-1963" is a must-have for any music lover looking to delve into the roots of rock 'n' roll. Wanda Jackson is a true pioneer of the genre, and this album is a testament to her enduring legacy. So grab your dancing shoes and get ready to rock out to this timeless classic.

About the artist

Wanda Jackson

Wanda Jackson: The Queen of Rockabilly herself, a feisty firecracker who blazed a trail for women in the music industry. With her signature red hair and fierce attitude, this Oklahoma native has been tearing up stages since the 1950s. Jackson burst onto the scene in the male-dominated world of rock 'n' roll, fearlessly taking on the likes of Elvis Presley with her powerhouse vocals and raucous guitar playing. She was a true pioneer, blending country twang with rockabilly swagger to create a sound that was all her own. But don't let her age fool you - Jackson is still rocking and rolling well into her senior years. Her live performances are legendary, with her energy and charisma proving that age is just a number. Whether she's belting out classics like "Let's Have a Party" or tearing through a cover of a contemporary hit, Jackson's passion for music is infectious. With a career spanning over six decades, Wanda Jackson has left an indelible mark on the music world. She's a true icon, a trailblazer for women in rock 'n' roll, and a force to be reckoned with. So if you ever get the chance to see this living legend in concert, don't miss it - you'll be in for a wild ride with the Queen of Rockabilly.
