Still Learning

I thought I knew a fair amount about the history of popular music, including jazz and the blues. Then three days ago I watched and listened to Sister Rosetta Tharpe for the first time. I'd vaguely heard of her but what a privilege it was to finally listen to someone this amazingly good. Now sitting at the back of the class, for the slow learners, but happily so knowing there's more of this to come: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jOrhjgt-_Qc.
