I Gotta Know

I GOTTA KNOW
 
 
“I Gotta Know”  is a rockabilly song recorded by Wanda Jackson in 1956, and released as a single by Capitol Records as 45-15586.  It was written by Thelma Blackmon.  Jackson’s version of the song reached #15 on the Billboard Country Singles chart.  It was later included in the 1960 album Rockin’ with Wanda.  (More from Wikipedia)
 
 
Wanda Jackson’s remarkable rockabilly singles didn’t chart very high for the most part; “I Gotta Know” – with several tempo changes and a great line in the chorus, “If your love’s the real thing / Where is my wedding ring” – was Jackson’s sole hit in its original release.
