I have a few of Wanda's LP's in my collection, mainly slow country ballads. I had no idea she ever did some Jimmie Rodgers covers.What a discovery! Just great. Many thanks for posting.
A Great Jimmie Rodgers Song. Jimmie Rodgers was the singer to combine Country Msuic and Black Blues Music. Wanda Jackson does a great job on this song.
we do. her name is EmiSunshine. Patty Loveless and Marty Stuart have both come out these last few weeks and said they think Emi is going to save/carry forward real country music. she's about to play the Grand Ole Opry for the 3rd time. she is 10.
Nice stuff. She sure was pretty. I remember her in her prime and as I recall she was kind of a wild child in country music and was frowardness upon by some. I like her voice. Thanks for the post. Old Jimmy sure had some great stuff out. Another great who died way to young. My dad was an alcoholic but a nice gentle guy. He loved Jimmy Rodgers stuff ad bought old 78's when he should have been buying food for the family. Drowned when I was 2. My mom told me about him.
Thanks,Carters01. I called my vinyl supplier and bought Capitol ST 2606,"Wanda Jackson Salutes the Country Music Hall of Fame". She does classics by Hank Sr.,Ernest Tubb,Roy Acuff,and Jimmie Rodgers.
Wanda said in an interview (on youtube) this Jimmie Rodgers blue yodel is the first song she learned to sing and accompany on her guitar. She strums and sings it during the interview. ( Roots of Rock: Wanda Jackson )
Wanda Jackson does Blue Yodel No.6 better than Jimmie Rodgers could ever have imagined it being done. Wanda, if ever you read this, many thanks for your Salt Lake City show, and for the after the show show at the Pride Club. You were great!
Wanda was good, but couldn't begin to compare with Jimmie as a yodeler, not to mention Jimmie was a great songwriter !!! The FATHER of Country Music and along with Hank Williams and Fred Rose, the first 3 inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame.
She's like 87 ish now and still with us... She should have gotten more recognition but a woman, that is sad because she could rock/country with anyone. 👍 !
Oh this yodel brings back memories of my Montana youth. Had a wired thought, what if some rapper broke into a yodel riff in the middle of the rap. That would rattle some cages.
Love love love Wanda Jackson. I grew up on your music and now my daughter who is 18 just covered this song on youtube.... She loves you too!!! Would love to meet you!
Great version, my favorite. Thanks for downloading. Couldn't find a Jimmie Rodgers version on RUclips. Is a Rodgers rendition available? I play blues harmonica (cross harp) and Jimmie Rodgers tunes plau real well. Real blues, even if it is labeled country. Interestingly, a scholarly paper on the origins of the blues puts forth the theory that the blues and country music crystallized in close to their current form in the Mississippi Delta area at about the same time, around 1900.
Trivia: Roots, I had a gal friend...we'd go Rodeo Roaming. She'd pack her guitar first! When we'd get to traveling; she'd sing & pick this tune & "Big Balls in Cowtown"; "I'm So Lonesome I Could Die/Cry"... and she could Yodel like a Mother! TOO! Long~legged, red~headed Cowgirl! She was Fun to hang with...thats all folks! ~♡~
Wow shes a Great Blue Yodeler.I like her yodeling songs better than her hits like Right Or Wrong,Im In The Middle Of A Heartache,which were good but these are GREAT.
@SpaceCowboy641 There's a country singer; a former Grand Ol Opry member, still very much alive if long past his career peak, named Stonewall Jackson. Don't count too much on common knowledge.
hank hamm, the book is $26.50 on amazon + free shipping. but yea, books, especially big thick ones have gotten pricey. kindle is definitely a good alternative...
I can't find "Wanda Jackson sings Jimmie Rodgers" on her discographies. On what album does this song appear? Was it ever released as a 45? My collection must have it! Thanks.
Wanda is interviewed & profiled [with photo] in the new book YODEL IN HIFI: From Kitsch Folk to Contemporary Electronica: uwpress.wisc.edu/books/4594.htm

One of the best female singers ever, I use to watch Wanda on the Red Foley show on the Ozark Jubilee, back in the mid 50s, what a beauty
WANDA JACKSON. WHAT A BEAUTIFUL VOICE AND SO GORGEOUS TOO.
one of the most under rated rockabilly/country artists.
+TheSicamousman I thought, she is named "Queen of Rockabilly", doesn't seem to be "underrated", or am I wrong??
I have a few of Wanda's LP's in my collection, mainly slow country ballads. I had no idea she ever did some Jimmie Rodgers covers.What a discovery! Just great. Many thanks for posting.
hands down, favorite version.
Wanda is giving me chills. I love this
What a singer! Thank you for this.
A Great Jimmie Rodgers Song. Jimmie Rodgers was the singer to combine Country Msuic and Black Blues Music. Wanda Jackson does a great job on this song.
Good voice and style all her own that was so ahead of the time!
Wish we had someone like this today...........................

Wanda is so awesome and almost forgotten by the general public today. Badass singer who covered so many genres. Dynamite.
Nice stuff. She sure was pretty. I remember her in her prime and as I recall she was kind of a wild child in country music and was frowardness upon by some. I like her voice. Thanks for the post.

Gorgeous woman with a hammer voice.
Thats the best description of the queen of rockabillys voice
When 'Wanda' finally leaves us suddenly everyone will go, she was a legend. She is a legend.
this is real music, and no rap, hip-hop, rnb XXI st.
This singer is fantastic... Yodeling? She has it down new fan here!

Indeed She was a super star !!!!
She is absolutely beautiful! So wish she was my girl!!
She's 81 now so probably not quite as pretty as she once was.
She's like 87 ish now and still with us...
She should have gotten more recognition but a woman, that is sad because she could rock/country with anyone. 👍 !
A beautiful woman and a beautiful voice!
Oh this yodel brings back memories of my Montana youth. Had a wired thought, what if some rapper broke into a yodel riff in the middle of the rap. That would rattle some cages.
Very much love to this wonderful woman

A great rendition. The singing brakeman's songs still live.

A charming woman! 🌹
Hahaha, I fell in love with her when I was ten years old.
How old are u now? 90?
wanda has quite a few more yodels in her repertoire inc "`Jesus Put a Yodel in my Soul" "Then I Start to Yodel" & "Cowboy Yodel".
Sounds a lot like The TB blues..Love it

Wanda is great who's playing the guitar, he is great too.
Ангельский Голос!😇💋
Love hearing a woman singing a Jimmy Rodgers song. I used to play this on my accordion. Now I know I played it way to fast.
I think she's wonderful.
Wanda can yodel.
When I met Her in Branson we had an interview and she told me her first love was old Country but the money was in rockabilly
Yes I love All This Music......!!!!!!!!!!!
There's a performance of this song on her recent album, "The Party Ain't Over" produced by Jack White.
all ways be fantastic thank youwanda
I will always love you and never forget you.
I didn't have no blues till my good man went away....
Just saw Wanda open for Cake last week.
Gorgeous
u sing Hank...I am a fan
Jimmy Roger's was the king of it but she's definitely the queen.
Came her by chance,,whom the hell is this beautiful woman,, the voice,,
THAT folks is country.
Esta buena canción la canto JIMMY RODGERS en el año 1929 y la versiono WANDA JACKSON en el año 1966
I also grew up in Montana. Maybe that's why we like yodeling.
all ways will be fantastic
, I really like your type of singing
Love Wanda.
Wow shes a Great Blue Yodeler.I like her yodeling songs better than her hits like Right Or Wrong,Im In The Middle Of A Heartache,which were good but these are GREAT.
@SpaceCowboy641
There's a country singer; a former Grand Ol Opry member, still very much alive if long past his career peak, named Stonewall Jackson. Don't count too much on common knowledge.
The good old days.
Wow in STEREO... thanx!!
excellent
Music!!
hell - they always hung noodles on my ears - Michael Jackson - Michael Jackson - but it turns out Jackson is a Wanda. !!!
good original country
hank hamm, the book is $26.50 on amazon + free shipping. but yea, books, especially big thick ones have gotten pricey. kindle is definitely a good alternative...
Hank Williams was as close to a music GOD on Earth as coulda been...imo
I would love to have that book but it is a bit pricey at $ 37.00
for a paperback. The Kindle version is only 9.99 from Amazon.
I can't find "Wanda Jackson sings Jimmie Rodgers" on her discographies. On what album does this song appear? Was it ever released as a 45? My collection must have it! Thanks.
Stonewall is NOT dead, born 11/06/1932, STILL join' strong!
Wanda is interviewed & profiled [with photo] in the new book YODEL IN HIFI: From Kitsch Folk to Contemporary Electronica: uwpress.wisc.edu/books/4594.htm
Wanda is 👍
Wanda sings a good blues song too,sample(Weary Blues from Waiting)
blues like midnight
What year was this?
Anyone know any guitar tutorials for this version of the song ?
WOW!!!!!
Is she going to do Jimmy Rodgers' whole Blues Yodel series? That would be fun.
