Synopsis

Product Description
Sister Rosetta Tharpe wasn t just ahead of her time. With her rip-roaring gospel testifying, a slashing, aggressive lead guitar technique that proved influential to up-and-coming axemen on both sides of
the stylistic fence, an audacious, biggerthan-life stage persona, and a willingness to buck church tradition as far as briefly crossing over to singing secular material with Lucky Millinder s orchestra during the early 1940s and again more than a decade later, Sister Rosetta was a true pioneer on numerous levels. It was said time and again that she played guitar as deftly as any man, something of a backhanded compliment but undeniably true. By any yardstick, hers was not an easy journey at a time when glamorous female stars were unheard of in her chosen musical field.
The impact of Sister Rosetta Tharpe on the development of both gospel and primordial rock and roll is incalcuble. Her visionary approach resonates throughout this compilation.
