#GreatAlbums1950s - #SisterRosettaTharpe – Gospel Train (1956). Billboard called Tharpe’s music “rock-and-roll spiritual singing” a decade before Elvis arrived at Sun Records. Her R&B gospel influenced the likes of Ray Charles and Aretha Franklin, and her breakout guitar solos anticipated the style of Chuck Berry. This 1956 set features Tharpe still at her peak, rocking the gospel like nobody else on “Jericho, “Up Above My Head” and other classics.

Born this day in 1915, Sister Rosetta Tharpe. If you don't know who Sister Rosetta was then you don't know the roots of Rock & Roll. A major influence on artists like Chuck Berry & Elvis. Here she is in England on May 7, 1964 with the Blues and Gospel Tour broadcast on Granada Television. One wonders how many young English blokes picked up a guitar after seeing this performance.

@popcornreel As is my habit, whenever #SisterRosettaTharpe comes up in conversation, I like to shout out the @great78 of archive.org, which takes old 78 RPM discs, digitizes them, and makes them available on the internets; they introduced me to Sister Rosetta, and they have an amazing collection of her work!
Sister Rosetta Tharpe. 🖤🙏🏿

Sister Rosetta was a pioneer.
And a red hot singer and guitarist.

Sister Rosetta Tharpe AKA “THe Original Soul Sister” AKA “The Godmother of Rock n Roll” (March 20, 1915 – October 9, 1973) you’d be hard pressed to an early Rock musician that wasn’t inspired by her music

Here is the original inventor of rock and roll—and the steel guitar. Sister Rosetta Thorpe doesn’t get the credit—and she really should. Many of the rock and roll “inventors” need to pay their respects to her. Little Richard and Chuck Berry others owe a great deal to her. 🙏🏿

Can we take a second to appreciate Sister Rosetta Tharpe?
In fact, make it a minute. Hell, take an hour, take a day, take a whole ass year.
THERE WAS NOBODY LIKE HER. THERE WILL NEVER BE ANYONE LIKE HER AGAIN.
Her influence on modern music is unprecedented and aside from that, she was such an incredible talent.
#SisterRosettaTharpe thank you, thank you, thank you
