　　A New York Times Book Review Editor's Pick

Long before "women in rock" became a media catchphrase, African

American guitar virtuoso Rosetta Tharpe proved in spectacular

fashion that women could rock. Born in Cotton Plant, Arkansas, in

1915, Tharpe was gospel's first superstar and the preeminent

crossover figure of its golden age (1945–1965).

Shout, Sister, Shout! is the first biography of this trailblazing

performe***ho influenced scores of popular musicians, from Elvis

Presley and Little Richard to Eric Clapton and Etta James. Tharpe

was raised in the Pentecostal Church, steeped in the gospel

tradition, but she produced music that crossed boundaries, defied

classification, and disregarded the social and cultural norms of

the age; incorporating elements of gospel, blues, jazz, popular

ballads, folk, country, rhythm and blues, and rock and roll. Tharpe

went electric early on, captivating both white and black audiences

in the North and South, in the U.S. and internationally, with her

charisma and skill. People who saw her perform claimed she made

that guitar talk. Ambitious, flamboyant, and relentlessly public,

Tharpe even staged her own wedding as a gospel concert-in a stadium

holding 20,000 people!

Wald's eye-opening biography, which draws on the memories of more

than a hundred people who knew o***orked with Tharpe, introduces us

to this vibrant, essential, yet nearly f***otten musical

heavyweight whose long career helped define gospel, r&b, and

rock music. A performe***ho resisted categorization at many

levels-as a gospel musician, a woman, and an African

American-Tharpe demands that we rethink our most basic noti*** of

music history and American culture. Her story forever alters our

understanding of both women in rock and U.S. popular music.
