Wanda Jackson|||Serious stuff, probably Janis Joplin.|||Wanda Jackson - The Queen of RockabillyIn 1960, Jackson had a Top 40 pop hit with "Let's Have a Party", a song Presley had cut a year earlier. She was headlining concerts with her own band, which she dubbed The Party Timers. Prominently featured were pianist Big Al Downing and guitarist Roy Clark, virtually unknown at the time. Her country music career also began to take off with the self-penned "Right or Wrong", a No. 9 hit, and "In The Middle of a Heartache", which peaked at No. 6. Both songs also enjoyed top 40 pop success.
