- Опубліковано 23 сер 2024
- Vee-Jay Records released the Staple Singers' first long-play album, titled 'Uncloudy Day', in 1959; the disc, number 5000, was additionally the first in the Vee-Jay Spiritual Series.
The songs for this video I selected from the album; they are
1) On My Way To Heaven;
2) Going Away;
3) I'm Leaning;
4) I Know I Got Religion.
The visuals are also from the album-- a portion of the cover art, and a photograph of Roebuck Staples with his children. However, the liner notes suggest that the son, Pervis, had left the group to go into the army, being replaced by his sister Yvonne. The other members of the family group are given as Cleotha, then age 25, the oldest child; Mavis, 19; and Cynthia, 7. The songs were arranged by Roebuck Staples, who accompanies on the guitar, bringing a fresh, distinctive, heartfelt sound to gospel.

70 NOW, BORN IN DREW MISSISSIPPI ,AS A LITTLE GIRL MY SISTER,BROTHER & ME WOULD SING, MOST OF THESE SONG AS YOUNG AS 7,8,9 YEARS UNTIL FULL GROWN, THANKS TO MY GRAND MOM (VERONICA L. STAPLES) FROM DREW MISS,
maxine staples KERN Sims, Mary KERN Buford, AS MAYLENE, EDWARD L. KERN,OUR NAMES.
I was born in Mississippi, and when I was growing up there, ALL you had was a "song". Black people were treated pretty bad!! I remember the Staple singers, we used to sing all their songs. Their songs made you "think" and realize GOD had a "better plan" for us.
I also was born in Mississippi, Hard Times!
Bless you all.Your suffering wasn’t in vain.
❤
We all revere the spell binding Mavis. But I'd like to put a word in for Cleotha's top note that gives an incredible ring to the Staple Singer's sound.
I saw Mavis Staples with Bonnie Raitt last June in San Diego. She was just as on fire now as when she was young and to think this album came out the year I was born....
I’m 30 now 2023 I grow up to this thank u mom
Just that guitar sound alone is something tremendous.
Mavis Staples, may her voice live forever as one of God's greatest gifts to us mortals.
Amen! The best singer ever recorded in ANY genre.
What a family of singers. Pop and his guitar had a unique sound.
Got to know about the staple singers wayback in the 70s while in college.What a family of gifted singers.God bless you all
I REMEMBER LISTENING TO THIS KIND OF MUSIC WITH MY GRANDMOTHER AND I LOVED IT AND STILL DO
Gave Us Hope ,God Has Instilled In Our Heart🙏🩸♥️
Mavis voice is probably the most moving voice in history..
I agree!
oh absolutely!
I’m from Chicago! Are you too. I just consider our living legend!
God is my healer . Prayers appreciated
Every single time I hear this I feel lifted.
I love you all music staple singer may god be with you all from Mrs Shirley Wilson may you all be bless
There will always be the Staple Singers, and everybody else, as far as I am concerned! It doesn't matter what genre they are performing, who wrote it, or whom they performed with; they did it perfectly, each and every time! Their music will ALWAYS lift up my soul, and allow it to be shined on by the face of the Lord, thanks dear God for them all!
ill never forget the time i saw them in a back alley in detroit (for free). When they were done after a show that went on for hours, the limo came and picked them up while people ran down the street after the car. it was amazing. id never seen them before, which is why i was up on a sunday morning for this. so glad i have this memory. rip pops
alot of the best singers are from mississippi. Pop Staples is one of them.
One of my biggest fantasies is to be in a church back in the day and the Staples appear out of nowhere and start singing. I almost start crying thing about.
Dean Prescott You hit the nail on the head, sir.
Hope i'm there too! Discovered them in '60 w.Hammer and Nails and Will the Circle....play them on my "Mystery Train" show every Tuesday night!
I saw them sing in church twice in the late 50's/early 60's. Pops shook everybody's hand at the door when we walked in.
Mavis was a big influence on Janis Joplin. I can't think of another singer who get's me like Mavis! Nothing short of amazing.
My mom loved them and me to 50s 60s 70s 😊
That's some RIGHTEOUS sound coming outa my speakers... yesterday someone told me Iggy Azelya was the rage... that person must live in a vacuum
FANTASTIC! The first song is so haunting. I have their 1965 album Freedom Highway , but I've never heard this one. I'll have to buy it! I thought Pops might still be alive, but sadly I see he died in 2000. He was the last remaining living link to early blues, Having grown up on a plantation near the first recognized blues guitarist, Charlie Patton, & learned guitar from him. John Fogerty, & some of the Excello Records swamp-blues guys, were also highly influenced by Pops’ guitar style.
Yes Mavis Staple..Thank You for your wisdom and voice always for the Lord in Jesus Christ Name..
Sends shivers up and down my spine cant say enuf about that voice the lord truly blessed that beautiful woman
No I'm
Glad To Call On Jesus, 🙏🩸 Blood Cover All, Thank God For His Son, He Saw Me, He Saw Us All🌎🙏🩸
I Love This Song Right Here.
Philippians 4:8
Whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any moral excellence and if there is any praise, dwell on these things.
Call Me Crazy, Crazy Jesus, Jesus, ,Jesus Morning Noon ,Evening, Call Jesus Nightly, Glory Glory
There is just something about this,, so pure clean it just speaks to me .
I discovered the early Staples stuff in the 80's, and it shook me to my toes.
Pop's guitar sucks me in and the haunting harmonies give me goose bumps.
Genius like the universe.
"it shook me to the toes" too
Thanks so much! This is the original juice
Lord knows I know Mavis's voice. Even then at 19 she was powerful. Bless the Staple Singers forever I have never heard this album but now I hope it's on iTunes this is how true gospel is sung. I grew up listening to gospel music like this in my grandparents home in the south on Sunday mornings before church. Brings back so many memories from my childhood. Thanks for sharing and posting :-)
Nice family portrait........the gospel truth, always start with the gospel roots.
These are memorable tunes one will leave to remember.
Thank God I got this album. Not the CD but the vj album.
I love their song called I ll Take You There.
Mavis warms the cockles of my soul - amen
Makes me want to buy the album.
My most listen to group for many years.
It took me a minute to realize that Going Away is a gospel version of Baby Please Don't Go.
I LOVE IT! Mavis tares up I'm on my way everytime i hear her sing it!

OMG...I remember Jos Bostic and the Gospel Train on WLIB. He was phenomenal with the sacred music he played.
I was at the Ace Hotel last Saturday in NYC to hear a DJ spin sacred music, and it was awesome because it bought back lots of memories from the "Gospel Train" days.
This is incredible...I love it!
So, so good

Ah, Mavis. Spirituality never sounded so earthy, sexy and sensual before or after
That guitar!
Why shouldn't these folks have something to say? They have been here a minute.
Musicians earn money as a result of people watching a film on UA-cam in which their music is used. This is why musicians are happy that their music appears in all kinds of films. Advertising generates the income for the artists. UA-cam will block films if the artists have a contract that prohibits use of their music. This responsibility is UA-cam 's.
In other words: if you hear music in any film on UA-cam you must assume that the rights for the music have been well secured.
