Nobody does soul quite like Sister Rosetta. Not only is she a mean blues guitarist, but she belts out gospel like her life depends on it. A huge influence to greats such as Aretha Franklin, Elvis Presley and notably, Johny Cash, true music lovers cannot afford to overlook this record.
One of the greats, definitely :)

After watching a programme about Sister Rosetta I ordered this cd.
Due to how long ago some of the tracks were recorded the production of some is a little scratchy, but this adds to the charm.
Overall its something different, uplifting and enjoyable.

Bear in mind, this is a review based on personal taste
I found this collection of music to be mostly of a religious, "praising the lord" type, when I was more interested in hearing sister Rosetta play the guitar, and perhaps a little... Read more

Rosetta Tharpe
A must for any fan of Gospel music, a mix of Gospel and jazz. Not entirely to my taste, but quite enjoyable nevertheless.

Make a joyful noise unto the Lord
What I wonder is the "Devil's Music" supposed to be? I mean really-the music of Sister Rosetta Tharpe-who was not a nun-is nothing more than rock'n'roll anyway. Read more
