 (2 Customer Reviews)
Here's the original wild woman of rock 'n' roll! She signed with RCA two months after Elvis and cut unvarnished rockabilly and rock 'n' roll for the next two years. RCA wasn't kidding when they dubbed her 'The Female Elvis'. Backed by the crack ... Full DescriptionNashville and New York session men, she cut 26 stellar cuts like Drugstore Rock 'n' Roll, Will You Willyum, My Boy Elvis, Bang Bang, Love Me To Pieces, Ooby Dooby, and Let's Elope Baby.

 be bop a loo la!!!
The women of Rock have too long been underrated.
Lovely voice. A bit more "controlled" than Wanda Jackson, but still a rocker; on a few cuts I don't hear as much emotion as the song would warrant, but none are a bad listen. In fact, most have me dancing, a spectacle to be sure. One in particular,"Drug Store Rock and Roll"- which she wrote herself,and recorded at the ripe old age of 15, is just flat out FUN! And she sure did love her William! Note three titles with "William" or some variation- each a rockin' good time. In fact, the entire cd is a rockin' good time. Bobby socks optional.
