Their song, “Respect Yourself,” is a definite must.
100%
Oh yeah Respect Yourself
Put your hand on ya mouth when ya cough- THAT’LL HELP THE SOLUTION!
Right on
This is an American gospel, soul, & R&B family singing group. Their biggest hits were in the 70's with "Respect Yourself", "I'll Take You There", "If You're Ready (Come Go with Me)", "Touch A Hand, Make A Friend" & "Let's Do It Again".
This was my graduation from high school song we were so happy….we partied to this all night long… we went there!
Dick Clark called them the most underrated group of the 1970s
They also did an amazing cover of “Dock of the Bay” that I think is even better than Otis Redding’s already amazing original.
Mavis Staples was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1999 and the Blues Hall of Fame in 2017. She is 82 and still going strong. I love her smoky voice, you always know it's her. That's her father playing guitar and the backup singers are her sisters.
Mavis is a national treasure.
We know that
@@flex5752 , yep a whole staples family can sing her voice just fit this song the best. RIP TO MAVIS SISTERS AND FATHER
The whole family were inducted
You have to do “The Weight” with them and “The Band”. This band was a huge influence on so many that came after them. The Staple family are legends as well.
This was the #1 song of 1972!! The great Mavis Staples!!!
The wonderful Roebuck “Pop” Staple and his beautiful daughters, Mavis, on lead vocal, Cleotha and Yvonne. Amazing!
There was a brother Pervi Staples (11/18/1938-5/6/2021) who sang harmony during the gospel day of the group.
Pops Staple had a brother named Sears seriously true story.
Mavis always takes us to church! She is the OG. Should hear them sing gospel it will give you chills. Pops Staples was amazing too. Fun fact: Bob Dylan wanted to marry Mavis and she told him No!
Mostly it was Pops who said NO!
They remain friends to this day and have recently toured together.
True to the latter.
Is there anything more beautiful than a young Mavis Staples singing this song in her trademark sultry and soulful voice?? The 70's charted the best Pop music of all times IMHO. When this song was released in 1972 I couldn't hear it enough.It was all over the radio, some days I heard it 3-4 times and it still wasn't enough. Great reaction, TY.
NO!!!
The Staple Singers were an R&B Gospel group that found mainstream success in the 1970's. They consisted of Pop Staples and his various children, most notably Mavis Staples who sang lead most of the time. She also had a successful solo career and is highly respected for her talent.
Love you.
And she’s still going strong! I just saw her show last month.
I agree with the request for The Band/ The Staple Singers- “ The Weight” ( The Last Waltz). It’s an amazing collaboration.
Never do the Staple Singers backing up nobody. They were legends themselves!
@@themajicman745 True but the song was great.
@@themajicman745 They were not backing anyone up. That was a joint venture.
The version from The Last Waltz is the best. Their collaboration works perfectly.
The place is heaven that's her dad playing guitar and her sister great gospel music you feel that in your soul
This song is about going to heaven‼️
( I’ll take you there )
Mavis Staples is a national treasure. The Staples Singers "Respect Yourself" is a banger too! Also check out Johnnie Taylor & Mavis Staples "That's The Way Love Is" from 1970. And for something really really special, check out their performance with The Band of "The Weight" from the 1976 concert film The Last Waltz. PS. The Staples Singers also liven up the 1973 concert film Wattstax and the 2021 film Summer of Soul, the later featuring the moment when Mahalia Jackson passed the baton to Mavis Staples. As one reviewer described it: "The two swap verses and then team up for the third. When they do, their intertwined voices glisten like daybreak sunbeams shooting through a valley."
Great music from my teen years 1970's.
She did this song at the CMA’s with Chris Stapleton a couple of years ago. She still sounds great!
This song was used so effectively in the movie, "Secretariat" - about the greatest racehorse of all time. Highly recommended viewing.
Great movie. Also liked the ending song Oh Happy Day by the Edwin Hawkins Singers
I typically don't listen to radio stations that play soul, but when this song comes on I put on the brakes and crank it up. This is one of my favorite soul songs...
Michael Jacksons famous adlib "Shamone" was a homage to Mavis Staples. If you listen closely you can hear her say something similar a few times in this song. She was an incredible singer.
The QUEEN Mavis Staples is still singing at 82. You need to check her out on the Hozier song “Nina Cried Power”. Mavis was 78 when they did that song in 2018 and it was fire! 🔥
And yes, I agree with others here, “The Weight” by The Band & The Staples is a fantastic collaboration!
Love The Staple Singers. Please react to "THE WEIGHT". The Staples are featured in this song by THE BAND. You will love it!
Never do the Staple Singers backing up nobody. They were legends themselves!
@@themajicman745 you better watch it. Martin Scorsese featured them in this incredible film.
Mavis Staples. A legend. The father was playing guitar.
I saw her perform in Ann Arbor at a small theater almost 2 years ago, just before the pandemic hit. She was WONDERFUL!! She sounded phenomenal, her personality was as huge as her voice, and we were dancing in the aisles. One of my fave concerts ever.
Mavis Staples will take you to church. You should check out her solo work.
Very short walk from Gospel to R&B/Soul and it's a great journey to take 🙂
If you can’t get to church The Staple Family will take you there 🤗 I have loved them from the first time I heard them. Glad you have discovered them!🎶🥰🎶☮️💥
Go to The Kennedy Music Awards honouring Rev. Al Green - Mavis Staples & Sam Moore take him to church 🥰 Back in the 60’s there was a duo called Sam & Dave, this is where I discovered Sam, ALSO check out ‘A Rainy Night In Georgia’ with Sam Moore & Conway Twitty, this studio recording will blow you away ( recorded just before Conway passed away 😢❤️🩹💎
How about this . . . . . They're in the ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME! A family gospel group, in the Rock and Roll hall of fame. LEGENDARY! Check out their collaboration with "The Band" singing "The Weight", from the documentary film "The Last Waltz".
I was really young when I first heard this over the radio I think 10 or 11 years old at the time. This song taught me all the moves, and of course many other artist like Marvin Gaye... Who would ever think a little white girl in the years of 1970 & '71' could make the kind of moves at this age?? 🤗 Well this one right here on your Utube page DID!! Everything I ever learned, Dancing and singing came straight from Motown!! When I got older these amazing dance moves paid off. I'm gonna be 62 in August of this year, and I can still out dance most kids today! Not bragging, just fact. In fact, I thought about having my boyfriend do a quick video of what I'm talking about, how's about that??? ❤️❤️❤️ Thank you both for bringing back our oldies but goodies. 💛💛💛
You adorable kids just discovering this enjoy it children ❤
Give a listen to "The Weight" by The Band with The Staple Singers from the live concert entitled "The Last Waltz" (from a film by Martin Scorsese).
Never do the Staple Singers backing up nobody. They were legends themselves!
Yes, Daddy is her Dad! Love his voice too. Mavis also sang with "The Band".
Mavis---Wow, Wow and More Wow! Every modern R&Ber could learn a thing or two or six from her.
I was fortunate enough to see Mavis Staples in concert about 5 years ago when she was touring with Bob Dylan.
She's still around...give her her flowers
THE STAPLE SINGERS "RESPECT YOURSELF" & "UNCLOUDY DAY"...TRUST ME!!
Yes this was a #1 R&B/Soul song, it was huge, and is still played on the radio today! A classic!
Another classic!
"Respect Yourself" is another great.
Respect Yourself is another great by Staple Singers
Respect Yourself is one of their best and has a message.
I adore The Staple Singers and this is my fave by them.Ladies back in the day were cut from a different cloth than now days.They all just had a style,sass and a grace it's hard to find now.
During the offering time in Black Baptist Churches, this is what they play to get you to offer a little more, while strutting around the table! Love it!
Respect Yourself and Let's Do It Again are bangers too!!!
One of the best gospel artists ever
I got goose bumps with her first moan. Took me back to my childhood. The Staples Singers were one of the first crossover gospel/RB. Marvis is ad-libbing with those moans and groans. This song is over 50 years old and she still sounds just as good now at age 83.
Mavis is STILL going strong and in demand with the top bands in the world!!! I think you reacted to her singing “ The Weight” with The Band and her family. Pops sings on that one as well. If not, RUN and get it!!!!
Came back to watch this again! 👀 Those vocal hum outbursts! I believe that's called the Mavis!!! 😛 I've never heard anyone else do it quite like her. She was completely in the music feels...that's talent!!
❤️❤️❤️Lets Do It Again and Come on Go with Me are a must hear!!
If Mavis Staples vocals don't seep down into your bones and hijac your emotions ............ you might want to check yourself for a pulse. One of the most iconic Pop songs of the 70s that has stood the test of time. Check out their collaboration with The Band singing "The Weight" (The Last Waltz). They stole that video hands down. I think the best video of the family together during a live performance..... IT IS EPIC! Great reaction, TY.
I love watching her face while she is singing, she puts so much love into her songs.
ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS AND THEM THE STAPLE SINGERS AND THEIR #1 HIT CLASSIC ARE DEFINITELY, "STAPLES" OF BLACK AMERICAN MUSICAL CULTURE!
The Staple Singers IS A Family THERE AWESOME IMAGINE THAT IS THERE FATHER HOW COOL IS THAT !!!
Just saw Mavis a couple of weeks ago....she is a National Treasure!!
Sing it Mavis!(And Daddy) Love,Love, LOVE."
I'm back in Junior High School, love this era and group! Thanks guys!
From the moment when it was released in 1972 i loved it, and i still do. Its on my playlist
I second watching them with The Band when singing The Weight... in my top 5 music videos
She is taking us to church. The Staples family. Pops Staples playing guitar, his daughters singing. . Mavis Staples is the lead singer. Gospel/ R&B
That’s called getting the feeling!!!
Listen to The Last Waltz by the Band with the Staple Singers.
For those not aware....the Staple singers were the musical entertainment for Dr. King when he was traveling around. Dr. King and papa staples were buds
Their Mother passed away when the girls were really young and their Father raised them on his own! This is raw talent right here! 1972…a great time to be black!
Except if you were a America of color.
Read about what quarter back Doug Williams or b-ball Icon Dr J. Julius Erving endured being black in the south.
I am a old white dude, that was not exposed to unjustified hate!
But I was there. This was long before progress.
The reason to love these times is the music.
Songs like. Black and White by 3 Dog Night & Brother Louie by Hot Chocolate.
These artist were addressing the elephant in the room.
Racism!
Music was the beginning of an end of this hate.
I hope I live to see the day when this fight is over.
@@felyjohnson1571 I’ve been black all my life lol…and while i’ve never experienced any racism, I do know that there are people who choose to do evil things to others because of their skin color. However, life is what you make of it. You can choose to see things from that lens or you can choose to believe that there are good people who choose to judge others by the content of their character. So for me?…it’s always a great time to be black despite knowing that there will always be someone willing to oppress, and depress and do wicked things. And i’m happy regardless of great music, songs or anything else for that matter. But what B-ball dude and others like him experienced in the south was very unfortunate however, if they didn’t still feel blessed to be black during those times….despite all the hatred in the world, then someone failed them miserably. So once again…the 70’s, years prior and years after will render the same sentiment form me! ♥️
Wow, this took me back!! I was a young girl first time I heard this song! Soul ...ya, moving ...yes! 💯 Its perfect for today as well " No smiling faces - lying to the races!" I bought this 45 at the "TG&Y!" I had quite a collection!! Still relevant today, maybe even more!! Thanks, I needed this!! I want to go!!! Happy Holidays ya'll ✌🤶🌲🙏❤💯🌎
These Ladies are Legends, and so is this song a definite classic. Always Lived this Song.
This was their main hit , tho they made lots of music . Mavis was one of the few serious rivals to Aretha as Queen of Soul in the 1960's - not for the number of hits - but for pure vocal talent . The guitarist in the band was their father .
Awesome, just awesome...always loved this family ❤
My loves- you’re gonna love a” O Happy Day” with the Edwin Hawkins Singers!
Mavis Staples for the win. I remember when this came out. A big hit.
I crank this up when it comes on in the car. LOVE IT. SHe's talking about Heaven.
The Staple Singers are one of my favorite groups of all time ! Best song from the Staples was Let’s do it again !
R.I.P.Mavis and papa Staples
When Mavis Staple calls on her father Pops Staples it makes me feel proud! Family Love!
That song was always on the radio all times of day and people stopped in their tracks when it came on. I love it!
Mavis Staples is in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the Blues Hall of Fame. She’s incredible.
You’re bringing back childhood memories. I was 9 years in 1972 when we had this album.
Another one of their songs is Respect Yourself. I think you should hear the studio version.
Check out their songs let’s do it again and respect yourself love this soulfully funky sound mavis staples can take me there and do can your reactions happy holidays
Brings back memories of 70's Motown music! The best era of music!!!!!
So happy someone's FINALLY reacting to the Staple Singers.
I was listening to another reviewer and thought to myself I would love to hear the song ' I will take you there ' i come here and to a pleasant surprise here it is . Thank you . Such a great song
First love you guys. Second Mavis, Her Sisters and Her Father, Pop Staples were featured on the song "The Weight" performing with The Band from the movie The Last Waltz. Mavis Staples is always awesome.
I could sing all the way through. Thanks for the good old soul/funk. 🎈
One of my favorite songs. Thanks for this. Cheers from Canada
Mavis definitely has the pipes, you should check out the band and the staples the weight!
Never do the Staple Singers backing up nobody. They were legends themselves!
ALWAYS loved this song, deserves more plays.
The legend that is Mavis Staples....
That was an amazing performance!

And still singing. One of great groups from Chicago
Wow!!!! What a throwback...I was a senior in High SchooI. I remember when this hit the radio...Could not get enough...Take me to church!!!!
She's like the female James Brown! ....Oh, yeah, Mavis got that Soul, baby!
Mavis Staples is as deep as the ocean. I’m getting choked up listening to this.
This is one of the greatest songs ever recorded.
Oh man I could listen to them all day. Mavis is super incredible.
I just saw Mavis Staples LIVE at Rivinia Music Festival last summer. (She opened for Bonnie Raitt.) She did her thing!! (She's a national cultural treasure.)
(This one was 1972! 50 years ago!!) She's STILL AMAZING ON STAGE!!! (I kid you not.) The voice. The rhythm. The energy. The legend.
She has STILL got it goin' ON! (She took us THERE!!!) I was so happy I got the chance to see Miss Mavis. Her set was fantastic.
Another great song and performers from my childhood!
I'm so glad you reviewed The Staple Singers. I grew up listening to them, and other Motown groups. Beyond fantastic music!!
I miss this kind of music
Back in the day when music was REAL music
Absolute music royalty seen Mavis in the Apollo theatre N.Y. IN 2007 what a treat GOAT.... RIP Pops Staples
Mavis Staples!! 👊 that voice and style is unforgettable 💯💯
We had the best music of all time! I am so glad I was a teen during these early years of the 70s :)
Guys you're my peeps, and it's just amazing for me to remember the wide and deep and endless variety of music that we love loved in the seventies. Gospel, rock, country rock, swamp rock, metal, it was all blowing up the radio. We were open to all genres. All that was required was that it have a vibe. That it have a feeling a moment. It was a great time
