Jo Ann Campbell had it all - looks, talent, and great records. In just two years she went from a wide-eyed fan at an Alan Freed rock 'n' roll revue to becoming one of Freed's most popular stars. She performed for thousands of fans, proving that she could rock just as hard as any of her male contemporaries, and she wrote her own songs and recorded numbers by some of the top songwriters of the day. Although she only scored a few national hits, her recordings for Eldorado, Gone, Rori and ABC-Paramount mixed a cute, girl-next-door charm with lusty, growling rock 'n' roll vocals in such classics as Come On Baby, You're Drivin' Me Mad, Wassa Matter With You Baby, Mama (Can I Go Out Tonite), Boogie Woogie Country Girl and many more.
Jo Ann Campbell's CD, the newest installment in Bear Family's Jukebox Pearls series focuses on the original 'Blonde Bombshell' with 37 tracks that comprise a comprehensive overview of the best of her rock 'n' roll recordings from 1956 to 1962. The set includes her rare, debut single for Point Records, I'm Coming Home Late Tonight b/w Where Ever You Go, along with several previously unreleased numbers. It's the essential collection of an unheralded and all-too-often overlooked Queen of RocknRoll!
