There was a thread about blues players on here a while back, and Rosetta Tharpe
was mentioned. I'd never heard of her but just by coincidence, about two weeks
ago I was at someone's house and he said "listen to this, you'll like it", and
it was her. Holy cow, what a voice-- very soulful, emotional gospel/blues
style, yet very technically sharp too. And she can certainly play the guitar
as well. I don't remember the name of that particular album but it's worth
checking out, if you're into this sort of style at all.
