Every Night Is Saturday Night

Wanda Jackson's debut single, "You Can't Have My Love," reached the Top 10 while she was still a sixteen-year-old high school student. She hit the road after graduation, playing package shows with Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Elvis Presley, who gave Wanda his ring and asked her to be "his girl." With Presley's encouragement, the Oklahoma native began recording rock music, often releasing singles with country on one side and rock on the other during her decade-and-a-half tenure on Capitol Records.

Known for her energetic stage shows and pioneering presence as a female artist, Wanda stormed the charts with a series of hit singles, including "Let's Have a Party," "Right or Wrong," and "In the Middle of a Heartache." With more than 40 albums to her credit, Wanda has proven to be an enduring and genre-defying legend of American music.

In Every Night is Saturday Night, Wanda tells her own story of getting discovered by Country Music Hall of Famer Hank Thompson; shy she refused to return to The Grand Ole Opry for more than fifty years; the challenges she and her integrated band, The Party Timers, faced in the early 1960s; finding the love of her life; her recent work with rock luminaries Jack White and Joan Jett; and how her deep faith has sustained her over more than seven decades of rocking, shocking, and thrilling audiences around the globe.

Single-ul de debut al Wandei Jackson, „You Can’t Have My Love”, a ajuns in Top 10 in timp ce era inca o eleva de liceu in varsta de saisprezece ani. Ea a iesit la drum dupa absolvire, jucand pachete cu Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis si Elvis Presley, care i-au dat inelul lui Wanda si i-au cerut sa fie „fata lui”. Cu incurajarea lui Presley, nativa din Oklahoma a inceput sa inregistreze muzica rock, lansand adesea single-uri cu country pe o parte si rock pe cealalta in timpul mandatului ei de zece ani si jumatate pe Capitol Records. Cunoscuta pentru spectacolele sale energice si prezenta de pionierat ca femeie artista, Wanda a asaltat topurile cu o serie de single-uri de succes, printre care „Let's Have a Party”, „Right or Wrong” si „In the Middle of a Heartache”. Cu mai mult de 40 de albume recunoscute, Wanda s-a dovedit a fi o legenda durabila si care sfideaza genul muzicii americane. In Every Night is Saturday Night, Wanda isi spune propria poveste despre descoperirea lui Hank Thompson; timida, a refuzat sa se intoarca la The Grand Ole Opry mai mult de cincizeci de ani; provocarile cu care ea si trupa ei integrata, The Party Timers, s-au confruntat la inceputul anilor 1960; gasirea iubirii vietii ei; lucrarea ei recenta cu luminari rock Jack White si Joan Jett; si modul in care credinta ei profunda a sustinut-o de-a lungul a peste sapte decenii de public socant, socant si palpitant din intreaga lume.
