Mavis Staples - Freedom Highway

[JandritoBlues]

Mavis brings tears to my eyes.

I loved me some Staple Singers back in the day and I am glad to see Mavis still doing her thing with her sister Yvonne backing her up. I just wish she wouldn't scream too much because her voice is deeper and it needs to preserve to cotinue the rest of her show. But Mavis oveall is an icon. The voice for many songs, gospel and Rhythm and Blues.

Lachce pas a patate'Staples!!!!!!Dude turn that damm electric guitar down and as for the bass and drums.. .. playing music this means you listen to the other musicans learn to use dynamics why can they get it??? One damm volume for the song begining to end Mavis has to raise her hand several times to Q them this was a lot of work for her too bad........

@AlFrisby This is one song out of and hour and a half....a night traditionally ends on a high note in such celebratory music.

@hammondorganlova84 Glad you liked this! She and her band were awesome. I imagine it was a little difficult for her singing at such high altitude. This festival was in the Sierra Mountains where the air is very dry and thin...
