Recorded at Mavis Staples’ 75th birthday party all-star concert in Chicago in 2014, this double album includes performances from Gregg Allman, Aaron Neville, Bonnie Rait, Emmylou Harris, Taj Mahal, Michael McDonald, and Win Butler and Rgine Chassagne of Arcade Fire. Of course the guest of honour herself closes out the evening with a series of duets and collaborations.A major voice of the Staple Singers founded by her father Pop Staples, Mavis Staples has always been adept at making a musical mixture all of her own, bringing together the introspection of gospel, the power of soul, and the groove of rhythm’n’blues, which breathes life into her tailor-made songs. As for her influence: where to start? A quick look at the list of performers who come to pay tribute on this album, brought together by Don Was, gives an impression of her importance. In the cavernous Chicago Auditorium Theatre, Regine Chassagne and Win Butler of Arcade Fire, Taj Mahal, Jeff Tweedy of Wilco, Aaron Neville, Patty Griffin, Grace Potter, Ryan Bingham, Michael McDonald, Widespread Panic, Emmylou Harris, Gregg Allman, Buddy Miller, Keb’ Mo’, Otis Clay and many others all show up to help her blow out her 75 candles. Over more than an hour and a half, they all sing the praises of this timeless high priestess of soul and gospel.
