Wonky Tonk (Jasmine Poole)

16910
"Wonky Tonk" (Jasmine Poole) is tied to King Records because her uncle, Kenny Poole, played with James Brown.  She notes that King recorded to two genres that were not mainstream at the midcentury: R & B and Country. She finds herself drawn to Bonny Lou because she crossed the boundary between Country and Rock-n-Roll.  She celebrates women's greater freedom to express themselves in the 21st century.
