I love the Staple Singers. Dig my grave with a silver spoon (or was it golden?) I am looking forward to listening to the interview about Sandra Crouch. And I am loving the Gospel Hours with DJ Elder Tim!
Awesome post and so excited about the Staple Singers project-- they're one of my all-time favorites. I remember seeing them as a kid at the height of their commercial success, performing at the Fairmont Hotel Venetian Room in San Francisco. I met and Pops Staples the next day in the coffee shop and he was such a lovely guy. Mavis will always be one of my favorite voices in any genre at any time. Just ordered the album!!!
You have the greatest stories!!!!! Thank you for sharing this! I've always heard that Pops was the salt of the earth and I love hearing this from you too! Mavis!!! What else can be said? I'm still hoping that one day her Prince/Paisley Park-produced masterpiece, THE VOICE, will one day FINALLY be acknowledged as just that! What an epic work. Thank you for ordering the new release!!!
