Wanda Jackson American Musician Quotations

Yeah, they let me do whatever I wanted to.

As I go back and listen, the other girls weren't singing quite like I was.

They're dressing like in the 50's when they come out to the shows, and many of them have vintage cars.

Right, different generations come along, and discover the music, I think.

It really is, to see that this kind of music is still so popular.

There wasn't so many ISSUES like there are today. It was a simpler time.

I enjoyed listening to it, but I didn't think I could do it.

I have some of the old videos of my performances on it.

You know, no one steered people's careers in those days, I don't think, like they do today.

I'd been working with Elvis, but I just recorded Country, so he, definitely, like you said, encouraged me to try it, but I didn't, right then.

It would be nice to say that I planned all of this, that this was exactly what I'd planned, but it was just one of those things that happened.

It would take them three days to tape a thirty minute show, and you just got so worn out, you did it however they wanted, just to get it over with.

The young people at the shows are all singing them right along with me, so I know that they have the records, they're bringing 'em out for me to sign.
