Sister Rosetta Tharpe & The Lucky Millinder Orchestra • “Shout Sister Shout • 1941 [RITY Archive]

[@tonymontana-uw1bq]

She was there before Chuck Berry, Muddy, JLH, Elvis, Little Richard, Johhny Cash, and she influenced them all ..she played an SG Gibson before all the legends...she is the queen of Rock n roll. ❤

[@luizmiranda1950]

*Who would have thought, "sister" is, without a doubt, creator and guitarist, first and most important among all those who brought the wonder that is rock.n roll!*

[@frenchlad9441]

"guess you guys ain't ready for that yet but your kids are gonna love it"

[@Nghilifa]

We wouldn't have had rock n roll without her. She inspired Lil Richard and Chuck Berry. She truly is the architect of rock n roll.

[@FenceThis]

There had been rock'n roll anyway

[@ZeusTheTornado]

What did Little Richard and Chuck Berry have to do with the start of Rock N Roll? You'd be better off mentioning Bill Haley and his band, but of course, they were white...

[@rodrigost.3324]

[@dlittle39dl]

Rest In Paradise, Queen Rosetta 👑........👊🏾🔥🏹🎯💯💯💯💯💯👍🏾

[@pouglwaw5932]

She had a one-on-one personal relationship with Jesus and proudly, powerfully proclaimed it to the world. Didn't have a "holier-than-thou" bone in her body. Yes, she's in Paradise but do you really think she's resting?

[@howardmaryon]

She led an amazing colourful life, and laid the foundations for rock and roll.

[@MDJ-f7k]

" At the time, White musicians profited from this "race music" without crediting Black songwriters, who often received scant if any royalties from this theft. Thorton got $500 for "Hound Dog," the song that branded Elvis as Elvis. White bands like the Rolling Stones commodified blues without acknowledging Black composers. "

[@shafitinsley4062]

Queen 👸🏿 Rosetta She Cover Gospel, Blues, Rock n Roll , R&B, Rap. God Bless 🙌🏿 her Soul 🙏🏿 RIP Queen 👸🏿 Rosetta

Sister Rosetta has a totally enchanting charisma - in all her performances.

[@markvandertoorn1049]

She started it ...decades later and still touches every nerve inside you

[@ashsol2657]

Sister Rosetta, the one and only.

[@h.chappelle2720]

Wow! Black showbiz music at its finest. She was so talented.

[@billwilson-es5yn]

Sister Tharpe was very popular back then and was one of two gospel artists that recorded songs on the military's Victory label that were broadcasted to US military personnel during WW2. The band in this clip accompanied her in all of those recordings. The band also recorded several for the Victory label.

[@tawandamaat0013]

Freedmen/Foundation Black Americans was rocky and rollin putting the rap lyrics on this song, back in my great grandparents and great grand relatives days it was called Jive Talking, then it became FBA’s creation of Hip Hop, rapping. Much love and respect to our Freedmen/Foundation Black Americans Queen Mother Ms. Rosetta Tharpe thank you ancestor for your creation of Rock & Roll, Rest In Peace !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@davidmccann9811]

The term Rock and Roll came from her playing, she knew what she was doing on the stage

[@bienemaja5610]

A Great Performance, lovely voice, wonderful text, and for me... funny weird looking.. but she had style and grace on stage!

[@Crookqt]

Now listen everybody to the precious words I'm gonna do some chirping And I ain't no bird There's a reason for living A reason for dying A darned good reason why a woman starts crying A reason for a mole, a reason for a dimple But there ain't no reason why a man's so simple But the day you quit me brother That's the day you lose your life But there ain't no reason Why a man can't swing Well fill me full o' rhythm Can you understand that ......Simple man........... "Live simply so that others may simply live"

[@E.S.M003]

Who’s there after movie death on the nile.

[@anonwoohoo]

Love the footage. If you could upload more, and consider looking into AI footage restoration programs, you could have a lot of really good content on your hands. I predict that soon there will be a push to resurrect Rosetta Tharpe's music and legacy. Please help push her back into the mainstream.

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼💪🏽 A wonderful song, a shiny singer, and as a sister I shout: yellow, red, black and white humans don’t exist! That is for me racism - maybe positive rasicm who says I am proud to be black... but for me stupid behaviour for something what doesnˋt exist!

[@dwayneclemons5497]

I've always loved Sister Rosetta Tharpe and Lucky Millinder and his Orchestra. Alas, it's so unfortunate that they all had to dress like sharecroppers for this film-short; let alone for any other reason. I guess the producers just had to do it. I guess they (the producers) just couldn't get that stupid, romantic idea of "Colored sharecroppers, who happen to be great musicians" out of their tiny, little minds.

[@muckaxe]

All these people are dead

[@Burzumlegacy]

Why every body smiling on this video? How dare they?

[@MDJ-f7k]

"In the majority of cases, it turns out most Black songwriters of those eras barely made a dime off of their creative work, while the white musicians found radio airtime, fame, money, and notoriety for generations using the exact same song. Many Black creators died penniless and nameless, without any credit for the music they brought to the world."
