  • Beyond this performance by this singer, it's kind of appalling that television just doesn't do music performance well. This one show, now gone? Excellent work.

  • what a lineup and what a performance!!

  • Straight up! Home girl Mavis ROCKS! Peace from Boise Idaho!

  • A young David Sanborn playing the Alto Sax.

  • I'm seeing her perform with Booker T in March. I can't wait!!!

  • damn I like this set up! Marcus, Dr John, David. Wow! And Mavis is simply amazing !

  • Who is in the band? Dr John on piano. Is that Tom Scott on sax? Lead guitarist (sitting down?) is Jeff...? Great sound! See that Lorne Michaels was the producer.

  • David Sanborn on SAX

  • And... of course, Marcus Miller on Base!

    Wow!

  • @yesterails -- DAVID HOOD played bass on the original recording.

  • when down, hopeless, uncertain, sad, worried..listen to Mavis's beautiful voice...or just humm this song, think sbout it..she'll take u there:) will give u smiling face:) worries wil go away, will lift the spirit.

    Mavis Staples really sings from bottom of her heart when she says "i'll take you there:)love u mavis..ur fan Armand:)

  • @travisangeli Right on! You said it! Peace!

  • @travisangeli - You are RIGHT ! ! ! !

  • @travisangeli is this really mavis? don't look like her!

  • LOOOOOOVE the staples!!! Wish I could sing like that!!!

  • Is that professor long hair and Jeff Healey?

  • it's dr john

  • Mavis asked if they could do 'A House Is Not A Home' and David replied, "You lay it down and we'll pick it up."

    Is there any chance you have that video? By far, it's my favorite version of that song.

  • Mavis could throw it down on this song in all kainsa ways - any way she wanted to. The house fell down that nite. The city was funkified (can hear that fabulous gospel thing in theah) - Mavis turned that city into one seriously right-on happening place when that show went down. She is one of the greatest vocalists of all time, in the history of music.

  • Comment removed

  • love her deep vocals,,,nice

  • Everybody who knows me knows that this is the song I want sung at my funeral. And now you all know that too.

  • shutup

  • Not to mention Dr. John on piano!

  • WHOA!perfect!

  • Jeff Healey and Mavis Staples WOW... neat

  • Got to see Mavis sing this with Booker T. live at The Harris in Chicago last night, definetly worth seeing them both.

  • The late Jeff Healy is also on GTR. Blind player who could rock it, jazz or funk it. He'll be missed. I think H. Bullock has passed away as well

  • The groove happening there(that session) - good lawd, mon. The thing was so happening, it's just ridiculous. Small-club atmosphere thing going with the legendary Mavis Staples right there, with them, saanngiiin it!

  • I just love Marvis Staples

  • Classic!!!

  • I heard of this little lady until the other night. She has absolutely brilliant voice! I think she should do a duet with Tina Turner, Daryl Hall or even Andrew Roachford!!!

  • I think mavis may have passed away.

  • OOPs, I stand corrected. MS. Mavis is still alive and still active. I'm sorry.

  • mavis is still singing mostly gospel

  • So funky... That's Hiram Bullock on Guitar also. Marcus is the man.

  • Funky!

  • I saw Mavis perform last year. She was asked what she thought about singers like Beyonce who's career is based so much on looks. She said, "Well, I used to be a Beyonce, and I can tell you that if Beyonce keeps on living, one day she will be a Mavis".

  • wow...cant dissagree with that...B has a long way to go to get to greatness such as this

  • Beyonce will NEVER be a Mavis!

  • Close but no cigar!!

  • @hagirl62 Yeah, Mavis has soul!!!! Her voice will take you there.

  • @hagirl62 You sure got that right!

  • Lol, I think Mavis was just being modest..

    Obviously..

  • Damn! I just watched this an hour ago... now it's gone! LOL! Anyway, it was the late Jeff Healey on guitar (NOT Jeff Beck).

  • Mavis Staples is the truth! Dr. John, Jeff Beck, Marcus Miller and David Sanborn..... It's a good thing it stopped when it did, or I would've been out in the streets dancing!

  • Mavis is killing it! This is great.

  • great power

  • It doesnt get much hotter than that.

  • Does anyone have Mavis Staples singing "A HOUSE IS NOT A HOME?" Her rendition is fabulous...

  • I love her voice...

  • Mavis is so cool it isn't fair - mercy - help me now - you go mama
