All this new stuff they call rock ’n’ roll, why, I’ve been playing that for years now… Ninety percent of rock-and-roll artists came out of the church, their foundation is the church.

—Sister Rosetta Tharpe in an interview with Daily Mirror in 1957

#MarieKnight, best remembered as musical (and perhaps romantic) partners with Sister #RosettaTharpe, was born on this day in 1920. Together, Tharpe & Knight ignited new possibilities in gospel music, taking it beyond the church into secular entertainment. Their endeavors were instrumental in building the foundation of both rock 'n' roll AND soul music. . Though her recorded duets with Rosetta are her most famous, Marie actually had an extensive solo career in gospel as well as soul music. . Why is she depicted here within an apple? This is from a decoration I made for my Pride Month kick off party called "Fruit Cocktail". . https://www.instagram.com/p/CPn7zkgBR6I/?utm_medium=tumblr

COMO O ROCK COMEÇOU? Começou com uma mulher. UMA MULHER PRETA. E o nome dela é Sister Rosetta Tharpe. Nascida em 1915, em Arkansas, Estados Unidos. Hoje, no dia do rock, nada mais justo que homenagear a mãe do ritmo. Alcançou grande popularidade nas décadas de 30 e 40, misturando o gospel a seu violão elétrico. . “Strange Things Happening Every Day”, gravada em 1944, foi a primeira música gospel a figurar no top 10 da Billboard. Rosetta inspirou Elvis, B.B. King, Bob Dylan, Chuck Berry, Etta Jones, Johnny Cash e Little Richards e outros nomes do rock que ficaram na eternidade.
