Some know the legendary
Wanda Jackson
only as either a wild
rockabilly
banshee or a
gospel
singer.
Jackson
was also a solid, original
country
singer and this collection by
Ace
, one of the very best assembled onto a single disc, proves the point in spades. When
emerged form the
years, her
records contained more than a little of that untamable spirit that made her hits of the 1950s so essential. The recordings in this set cover the years 1958 to 1972. They say as much about Nashville as they do

"Fancy Satin Pillows"
and
"A Woman Lives for Love"
are both here as well, representing

Capitol

"Tennessee Women's Prison,"
a
honky tonk
song recorded as her last single for

"Let's Have a Party,"
from a 1969 live album produced by
Ken Nelson
