More than overdue, the Queen of Rockabilly, Wanda Jackson this week was voted into the Rock and Roll Hal of Fame in the builders, or early influencer category. A protege of one Elvis Presley, Jackson had hits with not only rockabilly, but also country and western as well as gospel. The Oklahoma tornado still performs today, and lives in Oklahoma City.
The Jersey City Desk would like to congratulate the first lady of rock and roll and an incredible trendsetter on her induction.

Wanda was a HAMMER. I WANT THAT DRESS.
