Monday Morning Glory with Sister Rosetta Tharpe

A little something to explode your preconceived notions about rock and roll. Sister Rosetta Tharpe doesn't care if you don't think women can play guitar, or if spirituals and rock and roll can't make common purpose, or if pacifism can't stir the blood. This is a non-religious spiritual war whoop over the longed for death of all war.

I personally don't think she needs the backing choir any more than she needs a second head but that doesn't make this any less a shocking thing to hear and see.
