  • This woman is one of the greatest artists of ALL TIME ! That she is largely forgotten is a disgrace.

  • Sister Rosetta Tharpe was a self-taught musical virtuoso. She was one of the architects of Rock & Roll bringing the sound to life in the 40"s. This was before Elvis stole Big Mamma Thorton's "You Ain't Nothing But A Hound Dog". She was doing pinwheels on stage before Chuck Berry and has a flamboyant stage presence that Little Richard and Elton John copied.
