The sound of the Staple Singers, was part of the 70s, soulful civil rights songs such as the often covered +Respect Yourself' and +l'll Take You There'. Three sisters (including Mavis who records with Prince) outfront and Pops Staples singing along. Before phoning Pop I figured if Mavis is over 40, how old is her father? He’s 76 and starting a solo career. Good timing.
