De complete Stax Studio-albumoutput van The Staple Singers. Zes albums – Soul Folk in Action, We Will Get Over, The Staple Swingers, Be Altitude – Respect Yourself, Be What You Are and City in the Sky en 1 LP met rariteiten en niet-album singles. Dit alles in een mooie cassette met boekwerk.
Geniet van de tremelo gitaar van “Pops” Staples en de prachtige stemmen van Mavis en haar zussen. We kunnen dit gerust als het allerbeste bestempelen van wat er bestaat in het genre gospel/soul.
Come Go With Me: The Stax Collection presents all of The Staple Singers’ studio albums released on the iconic Stax label, spanning 1968-1974. The seventh disc offers rarities, non-album singles, and several live recordings from the legendary 1972 Wattstax music festival. Housed in a slipcase, the collection also includes a deluxe booklet with archival photos and new liner notes. On seven LPs (each 180-gram), it features their biggest hits: “I’ll Take You There,” “Respect Yourself,” and “If You’re Ready (Come Go With Me),” which were cut from original analog masters by Jeff Powell at Take Out Vinyl. The package faithfully replicates artwork on the studio album jackets as well.
The final, seventh disc offers rarities, non-album singles and several live recordings from the legendary 1972 Wattstax music festival. The seven discs come in heavyweight 180-gram vinyl pressed at Memphis Record Pressing. Housed in a slipcase, the collection also includes a deluxe booklet with archival photos and new liner notes from American music specialist and curator Levon Williams (formerly of the Stax Museum and the National Museum of African American Music), and folklorist, ethnomusicologist and writer Dr. Langston Wilkins. The complete collection will also be released digitally, and the six studio albums will be available in hi-res 24-bit/192 kHz and 24-bit/96 kHz formats for the first time.
