Hear it Now

Mavis Staples, the grande dame of the legendary Staple Singers, has spent much of her solo career striving for pop crossover, but here she revisits the earthy, guitar-centered soul-gospel sound that made her group such a consciousness-raising force in the 1960s. Talk about an overdue return: She's inspired to lean back and roar with all her heart, and though the songs of Faith aren't uniformly top-shelf, her performances definitely are. Whether singing an abiding classic ("Will the Circle Be Unbroken") or a more extroverted rumble ("Ain't No Better Than You"), Staples shows sheer vocal authority, and she can still deliver a spine-chilling "amen."
