Had to lookup both Atkinson and Wilson.  Zombies and B-52s.  Will probably listen to "She's Not There" and "Time Of The Season" later today.  Thanks!

It's unfortunate that many would have to look up Sister Rosetta Tharpe, an unsung original creator of rock 'n roll.  Here's one of her tunes.  Swing over to the "What Are You Listening To Now" thread where I just posted a one hour documentary on the Sister.

Bill, tgo

I did not have to look up Sister Rosetta Tharpe.  As Bill says, she's one of the earliest pioneers of rock & roll.
