  • holy shit now how hard does she rock

  • she is awesome.

  • Listen to that guitar break from about 1:29 on .....Sister is Rockin' The House!!!!! Wow!!!

  • Great version! What happened to the Gospel Choir? What flew up their asses? They're acting like it's a chore to witness one of the All Time Greats!!!!

  • Lemmie Battles kind of reminds me of Rosetta Tharpe vocally and some of her mannerisms...especially at about 1.25. Both are GREAT ARTISTS, very distinctive, and I could listen to either anytime, anywhere when I want to hear good inspirational music.

  • Sister was ahead of her time. Before Chuck Berry, Elvis or the Beatles Rosetta was the architect of Rock-n-Roll!

  • 10 out of 10 Sister. You are a beautiful lady, alive in our memories, and I wish you were here to sing some cheer into this dying sorry world.

  • It's amazing to compare this "rockabilly" style to the jazz version of the song uploaded by Dustyshelves. Check it out.

  • awesome

  • I sure hope she was inducted in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Amaising!
