5.0 out of 5 stars Later day Sister, still in the groove, April 30, 2008

By	Allen Bardin (Columbia, SC United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Despite the cheesy-looking CD design, this late-period Sister Tharpe session for Savoy swings like a jazz date.
Even heathens like me can't resist the infectious Rosetta's soul-stylings!

5.0 out of 5 stars Sing it, Sister!, July 5, 2007

By	C. J. Chatfield "mantanfan" (isle of everywhere) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This album, recorded later in Sister Rosetta's career, shows she still had it. She can sing it sweet, sing it soulful, or rock out. This has a nice song selection, and she was in fine voice (and HOT on that guitar!) when it was recorded. One thing I like better about this cd than "Live in 1960" is that she has a back up band (piano, organ, percussion, and bass, which adds a little more dimension than just her and her guitar. Highly recommended if you prefer her electric guitar work.
