Our Take

The Staple Singers are back, baby! With their latest album "This Time Around," this iconic gospel/soul group proves they've still got it after all these years. From the moment Mavis Staples' powerhouse vocals kick in on the opening track, you know you're in for a ride.

The album is a masterful blend of classic Staple Singers sound with a modern twist. The harmonies are as tight as ever, the instrumentation is on point, and the messages of hope and resilience are more relevant than ever. It's like a warm hug from your favourite auntie, but with a funky rhythm section.

Standout tracks include the funky "Love Comes in All Colors," the soul-stirring "We Shall Overcome," and the infectious "Keep Your Eyes on the Prize." Each song showcases the Staple Singers' unmatched musicality and social consciousness.

"This Time Around" is a testament to the timeless power of music to uplift and inspire. Whether you're a die-hard fan or a newcomer to the Staple Singers' discography, this album is sure to move you in ways you never thought possible. So get ready to groove, get ready to feel, and get ready to be transported to a higher plane of musical bliss. The Staple Singers are here to stay, and we couldn't be happier about it.

About the artist

The Staple Singers

Staple Singers might not be a household name like The Beatles or Queen, but this legendary American gospel and soul group has left an indelible mark on music history. Hailing from Chicago, Illinois, Staple Singers found success in the 1960s and 1970s with their unique blend of soulful harmonies and socially conscious lyrics. Fronted by the powerful vocals of Mavis Staples, the group's sound has been described as "a blend of gospel, soul, and R&B that can only be described as pure magic." Their music is a reflection of the turbulent times in which they lived, with songs like "Respect Yourself" and "I'll Take You There" becoming anthems for the civil rights movement. The Staple Singers are not just a band, they are a family. Founded by patriarch Roebuck "Pops" Staples, the group also includes Mavis's siblings Cleotha, Pervis, and Yvonne. Their tight-knit bond is evident in their seamless harmonies and dynamic live performances. With their distinctive sound and timeless message of love and unity, Staple Singers have influenced generations of musicians across genres. From Prince to The Band, artists continue to be inspired by the group's soul-stirring music. In a world of fleeting trends and disposable pop stars, Staple Singers stand as a beacon of authenticity and resilience. Their music remains as relevant today as it was when they first burst onto the scene, proving that great music transcends time and trends. So crank up the volume, let the music of Staple Singers wash over you, and prepare to be uplifted and inspired.
