Ruby Turner celebrates the influential gospel singer and guitarist Sister Rosetta Tharpe.
Sister Rosetta was one of the most innovative gospel musicians of her time. In her music, you can hear blues, R & B and rock 'n' roll, and she influenced the likes of Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Little Richard and many more. When she married, 20,000 people attended the wedding in a baseball stadium, yet when she died, she was buried in an unmarked grave.
Ruby Turner charts her rise to fame and popularity and subsequent demise in a documentary first broadcast on Radio 2 in 2009.
