Remembering Sister Rosetta Tharpe, gone 46 years today. When she was asked about music in the late 1960s, she said, "Oh, these kids and rock and roll — that is just sped up rhythm and blues. I've been doing that forever."

Remembering Algia Mae Hinton, born on this day in 1929 in Johnston County, North Carolina. Here she is buck dancing and playing guitar in Mike Seeger’s 1984 documentary “Talking Feet.”
