Check out her badass solo at about the two minute mark (remember, this is 1964, so nobody is playing with distortion yet) and then tell me that all the dudes that came later -- from Chuck Berry to Elvis, Johnny Cash to Little Richard and Jerry Lee Lewis on down to the Stones, the Yardbirds, and eventually Prince -- didn't borrow a thing or two from Sister Rosetta. The Godmother of Rock 'n Roll.

Listen, I don’t know what weird freak shit the lead singer did but i really enjoy this song and it makes me feel less lonely. It’s a cover of an AC/DC song and I love when songs Are covered so differently than the original.

Hey tyler hopefully this doesn’t violate some PI.FYI golden rule But after nearly two years of writing, editing and arguing, my book about the EP is coming out in May and can be preordered here: https://hozacrecords.com/product/aifl/ The book is about the origins, history and cultural impact of the EP since these little objects first started coming out in the 50s. Over 50 of my music biz friends then helped me shape the list and review the top 200 ever released, according to us (ha). For those of you who are into this kind of geekery/snobbery, I can’t wait to hear what you think. A labor of love, as all books are! ❤️
