Wanda Jackson gives credit to the King

Wanda Jackson was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2009. That might never have happened if she hadn't met Elvis Presley in 1955, when she was 17. Until then, Jackson was making waves in country music. Hank Thompson invited her to sing with his band, the Brazos Valley Boys.
