Country music's first female rebel, the "Rockabilly Filly" herself, successfully revisits her past on Heart Trouble with the assistance of a cast of contemporary friends and fans. Jackson's first studio recording in 15 years features a duet with Elvis Costello on "Crying Time," a couple of tunes, including an update of her 1960 hit "Funnel of Love," with the Cramps backing her and, most effectively, the guitar work of Dave Alvin spicing up several tracks. Rosie Flores, who coaxed Jackson out of retirement in 1995, also helps out with vocals on a couple of tracks. But, as befitting her independent woman reputation, Jackson does quite well by herself, especially on the title track and the Louvin Brothers classic "Cash on the Barrelhead," complete with tasty steel guitar from John McFee, that follows it. The Cramps provide a rowdy remake of "Riot in Cellblock #9" and a muscular treatment of Carl Perkins' classic "Rockabilly Fever," Jackson's traditional concert opener, showcases Alvin's affinity for real rockabilly. Jackson's West Coast touring band the Cadillac Angels also gets in on the action via a reprise of her '50s hit "Hard Headed Woman." Producer John Wooler, who has worked with everyone from Willie Nelson to the Counting Crows, used several retro production tricks, including vintage microphones and analog recording, to infuse authenticity into the proceedings but all he really needed was Jackson's still strong and sassy voice in the service of her unshakable rockabilly sensibilities.
