Description
Recorded at Chicago’s Auditorium Theatre for her 75th birthday, I’ll Take You There: An All-Star Concert Celebration catches Mavis Staples in full flight. Jeff Tweedy joining for You Are Not Alone brings a tender hush, The Weight turns communal with Win Butler trading verses, and the finale I’ll Take You There lifts the roof. Spread over 2LP, the performances breathe; space opens up and the low end sits deeper. You can pick out the choir and horns cleanly, so those call-and-response sparks really travel. Rather than a dry tribute, it plays like a living bridge between Stax grit and modern Americana warmth. It deserves a spot beside Aretha Franklin’s Amazing Grace for the same mix of praise, protest, and joy. If you’d rather order online, you can buy Mavis Staples records online with us. Between songs she beams, shares a line or two of history, and keeps the room in her pocket. Ideal for a small party or a late drive, it’s generous without grandstanding and recorded with obvious care.
Grab it online now or drop in to our Melbourne shop and take it home today.
