I’m sooo excited about this!
“Wanda Jackson is a rare and special icon of rock ‘n’ roll: Known as the Queen of Rockabilly, she’s been a pioneer in carving out a place for women in rock.
The Party Ain’t Over, Jackson’s first studio album in eight years, features 12 cover songs produced by Jack White. It also showcases a generous smattering of guest artists, including Jackson Smith (Patti Smith’s son), Karen Elson (White’s wife) and Jack Lawrence (of The Raconteurs and The Greenhornes), among others. Most songs feature between eight and twelve musicians, and the result is a dense but impeccably crafted blanket of sound.”
Um, so Jack White made magic with Loretta Lynn and I am SO into this idea. Listening now!
