thanks for having this content, i have the song, and i know it through and through, but i can never be more thankful that the rest of the world has access to it. i want this playing on a club sound system at my grave site when i am buried.
Wonderful concert with standout performances all round, but love this version by Mavis, Keb Mo et al - tremendous! Have got the dvd but always nice to tune in again and thanks for the posting!
You have to check out the whole DVD: Lightning In A Bottle. It was a concert produced by Martin Scorcese to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the "blues".
Mavis Staples has one of the most distinctive voices in gospel and soul music. She has always been a political activist and used her voice on social issues. Mavis is a national treasure. Mavis just sings the truth.
i think the real name is a dying man's request.... it is blues song by Blind Lemon Jefferson who was a favorite of and a great influence on Pops Staples
perfect, any ideas how this part of the song is really called ? I don't ask of See that my grave is kept clean just about "Goin' away, don't you wanna go" ??? this is one of the standards but I don't know the title
