Wanda Jackson in Person

Wanda Jackson in Person is a live album by American recording artist Wanda Jackson. It was released in October 1969 via Capitol Records and contained ten tracks. The project was Jackson's first live album in her career and was recorded at Mr. Lucky's, a performance venue in Phoenix, Arizona.

Background
In the 1950s, Wanda Jackson released a series of Rockabilly recordings before transitioning into the Country genre during the 1960s, where she had commercial success. As the decade progressed, Jackson recorded more country material and became further identified with the genre. Jackson and her producer, Ken Nelson, decided to record her first live album after deciding that she needed to attempt other musical projects. Two dates were set for the recording of the project at Mr. Lucky's, a performance venue located in Phoenix, Arizona, where she "always had great crowds", according to Jackson's autobiography. ==Recording, content and release==
