Sister Rosetta Tharpe
Although she never strayed too far from her gospel roots, the great Sister
Rosetta Tharpe pioneered a sound that younger admirers, such as Chuck
Berry, Little Richard and Elvis Presley, would mold into rock & roll. Tharpe
was one of the few female electric guitarists of her day. She played the
guitar not just to accompany herself but as a lead instrument, and she
ornamented her songs with intricate fingerpicking and flashy R&B licks.
This release presents two of Siter Rosetta's finest LP's, which were cut
during the zenith of her abilities: The Gospel Truth (1959), which
was captured live in New York City, and the eponymous Sister Rosetta
Tharpe (1960). Long unavailable on CD, both sensational albums have
finally been remastered and packaged together in this special collector's
edition, which also includes 4 bonus tracks from the same period.
There's no better proof of Sister Rosetta's genius than these powerful and
passionate recordings.
