Sister Rosetta

Sister Rosetta Tharpe was an American singer and guitarist who gained popularity in the 1930s and 1940s with her gospel recordings, characterized by a unique mixture of spiritual lyrics and electric guitar. Her heartfelt gospel folksiness gave way to her roaring mastery of her trusty Gibson Les Paul Custom, which she wielded on a level that rivaled the best of her male contemporaries. "Among her achievements as a pioneer in gospel music, Tharpe attained several firsts: the first nationally known gospel singer; first gospel singer to record with a major recording company". Sister Rosetta was truly a heroine of rock & roll.
