Shout, Sister, Shout! — Gayle F. Wald | Hardcover

Before rock and roll had a name, Sister Rosetta Tharpe was already playing it.

A Black queer woman commanding an electric guitar decades before rock became a cultural phenomenon, Tharpe broke musical and social boundaries while influencing generations of artists who followed her.
