Until Mahalia Jackson came along, Rosetta Tharpe was the voice of gospel, though some of the black churches shunned her after she played in nightclubs. She’d started out, pre-school, as Little Rosetta Nubin but later took a version of her husband’s name Thorpe and stuck with that to the end. The first recordings were backed by Lucky Millinder and they were all hits, exerting a discernible influence on early rock and roll.
