Another pick for this week's #TuneTuesday theme, #JumpUpAndDown.
Wynona Carr: Jump Jack, Jump! (1956)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Prw3W4CTI9cWynona Carr was a former gospel singer, who moved over to secular music in the mid-fifties. This song was the flip side of her second single for Specialty Records. She was an excellent vocalist, but unlike her labelmate. Little Richard, she didn't have any major hits.

"Slow Down" is a #rockAndRoll song written and performed by #LarryWilliams. Recorded in 1957, #AllMusic writer Stewart Mason describes it as "raucous enough to be #punkRock nearly a full two decades before the concept was even in existence." #SpecialtyRecords released it as a single in 1958, but only the second-side "#DizzyMissLizzy" reached the record charts. Both songs were later covered by #theBeatles.
