This is the story of Sister Rosetta Tharpe the Godmother of rock & roll #blackhistory #womenshistory
Before Elvis. Before Little Richard. Before rock and roll even had a name. A woman was already playing electric guitar with distortion in the 1930s. This is the story of Sister Rosetta Tharpe — the Godmother of rock & roll.

Before Chuck Berry. Before Elvis. Before Little Richard. There was Sister Rosetta Tharpe. In the 1930s, she was pioneering the rock & roll sound. Plugging in her electric guitar, blending gospel with blues, and creating the riffs that would later define the genre. She inspired Chuck Berry’s guitar style. Elvis’s stage presence. Chuck Berry said his career was “one long Sister Rosetta Tharpe impersonation.” And yet, when she died in 1973, she was buried in an unmarked grave. It wasn’t until 2018

The Black Woman Who Saved Rock 'N' Roll They wrote Sister Rosetta Tharpe out of rock 'n' roll history. She invented it in 1938—20 years before Chuck Berry. Elvis stole her moves. Little Richard said she taught him everything. They put her in an unmarked grave for 35 years. Every guitar solo you've ever heard is her legacy. #SouthernBlackRoots #SisterRosettaTharpe #BlackHistory #RockAndRoll #MusicHistory #BlackExcellence #HiddenHistory #BlackMusicians #CulturalErasure #SoulOfTheSouth Primary (Hig
