Sister Rosetta Tharpe - Can't No Grave Hold My Body Down free for downloading

Any sister that plays a Gibson guitar is OK with me !!! She's nothing but great !!!

I have to say, as someone with a lifelong disability, the words of this song are very meaningful to me. Your body can hold you back from a lot of things in this world, but praise my Risen Lord and Savior it won't hold me in the grave!

gospel rock swing.  all there for this great banquet of music.

This song was wrote by bro. Claude Ely, a great man of God. I'm friends with his nefew.

Thank you Lord for your blessings Love this song ❤️

Great music to play Easter morning.

The Grandmother of rock n roll, and nearly everything else! RESPECT!

and to think Johnny Cash wrote this

Lordy lord! Swinging the lord's music. Wonderful. Thanks for posting.

Paying you an over-due visit as well as birthday respects to Sister Rosetta Tharpe. She has that power to re-energise and visiting you always puts me in a better frame of mind :) Leaving here with gentle thoughts for you and yours... always.

Thank you for this post.

Fine as wine - she was one of a kind....an amazing talent that we were all blessed to have the opportunity to hear. Thanks for the post!

Fabulous version of this song, love it.

We'd better listen very carefully to what the big Sisters sings

I love that she played a cool white Gibson SG guitar in a gospel band setting, long before all the rock n' roll guitar players caught on.

This the kind of music you hear in Mississippi church lol
