CD Reviews

Some of Sister Rosetta Tharpe's best!

J.C., Lyons CO | 12/28/2007

(4 out of 5 stars)

"I have been a fan of Sister Rosetta Tharpe ever since I purchased an old Boogie Woogie piano compilation LP on eBay. Included was one of Sister Rosetta Tharpe's songs, accompanied by pianist Sammy Price. I immediately played the song again when I first heard it--it was so great. Although I am not a gospel music fan, I bought other LPs and CDs of hers, and am still amazed by her guitar virtuoisity. Many present-day jazz and rock musicians learned how to play guitar by listening to her records.

This 2 cd compilation shows her at her peak, with her witty lyrics and songs that leave you feeling great. The recordings sound excellent, despite their age. Four songs feature her mother, Katie Bell Nubin, who must have been around 70 when these were recorded.

Favorites include: He Watches Me (acccompanied by Marie Knight), My Lord's Gonna Move This Wicked Race, Ain't No Room in the Church for Liars, Little Boy How Old Are You, Ninety Nine and a Half Won't Do, Daniel in the Lion's Den, Somebody Needs Jesus, and Sin is to Blame.

Fans of Sister Tharpe will have to have this one."
