Background notes
Archive material and source history
Jayne County started performing in New York City around 1969 with a band called Queen Elizabeth. Their 1973 album 'Women in Prison' had explicit lyrics that got censored in some places. She later recorded as The Famous Jane County and put out albums like 'Man Enough to Be a Woman' in 1975.
Born Wayne Rogers in 1947, County began transitioning in the 1960s when transgender identities were rarely discussed publicly. Her music often dealt with that experience directly. The song 'I Don't Fit In Anywhere' with Am Taylor is a pretty straightforward statement of that feeling.
Her sound moved through different styles, from the early proto-punk of Queen Elizabeth to later work that touched on glam rock and electronic music. She collaborated with other New York figures like Iggy Pop and Lydia Lunch over time.
