Riot in Cell Block #9 by Wanda Jackson (1961)




Wanda Jackson was a teenage country music performer in 1955 when she ended up opening for an up and coming singer named Elvis Presley. She ended up dating Elvis for a spell and he would help to teach her how to play and sing rock n' roll music. I'm glad that he did, because Wanda's powerful vocals would not likely have been pushed to the max in the country music spectrum. If you haven't heard Wanda's vocals you're in for a treat.
