Producer Justin Townes Earle has a more appropriate vision. His goal is more to remind than to revive. The girlish growl of Jackson\u2019s early rave-ups is gone, replaced by a more world-weary approach, and the songs are age-appropriate. Fronting a small band devoid of Nashville gloss, Jackson proves she can still rock, wring emotion and get funky. She\u2019s a national treasure. This album does her legend justice. \u2013Jeff Tamarkin<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WANDA JACKSON\u00a0 Unfinished Business [Sugar Hill] At 75, Wanda Jackson has nothing left to prove.
