Party time for Wanda Jackson fans
We suggested last fall that fans of Wanda Jackson might just do like her biggest hit song says – Let’s Have a Party – if she were elected to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Well, break out the noisemakers and confetti.
Jackson was chosen for induction this week.
Jackson, 71, is a native of Maud and now lives in Oklahoma City. She began her career singing country music in the early 1950s but later switched to rock ‘n’ roll. Jackson will be inducted in the hall’s “early influence” category.
Congratulations to the Queen of Rockabilly, whose cause for the hall was championed for years by colleagues including the likes of Elvis Costello. Let the party begin.
