Mavis Staples feat. Jeff Tweedy – All In It
Together (ANTI-
Records)
Release Date: Out Now
The resurgence of Mavis Staples is
now well and truly complete which makes this new single and fundraising
campaign so much sweeter. ‘All In It Together’ finds Staples teaming up with
Jeff Tweedy of Wilco for the country meets gospel tune to raise money for the
most vulnerable to the coronavirus pandemic in Chicago. The melody is
reassuringly straightforward and spirit raising as Tweedy and Staples start
with a simple acoustic riff that soon grows and blossoms in to a slice of soul
cleansing Americana that will work over a slow motion montage of people triumphing
in the face of adversity. The deal is sealed by a rousing, honky-tonk piano crescendo
which demands your attention as much as your dance moves.
