Here is a treat for your Sunday, offered up by Lori. This is a televised performance of Sister Rosetta Tharpe (1915-1973), who was a pioneering singer in the 1930s-40s and whose music influenced gospel and rock. She was truly a cross-over artist, bringing popular music styles into the church, and gospel out of the church and into the world. Enjoy...
Jim and Lori,
ReplyDeleteI love gospel music. Fortunately WTJU (91.1) plays it on Sunday mornings from 9 till 10, which is where I caught a song by Eric Bibb.
