{"product_id":"mavis-staples-you-are-not-alone","title":"You Are Not Alone CD","description":"Along with Mavis Staples' considerable talents, part of her recent success comes from picking worthy and sympathetic collaborators.  On her last album, 2007's outstanding We'll Never Turn Back, she worked with Ry Cooder.  This time she's joined by Wilco's Jeff Tweedy, who does a fine production job by placing Staples' rich, gritty, and resonant voice up front where it belongs.  Simply put, she's in terrific vocal form, a glorious combination of toughness and tenderness.  Together they selected some choice material including songs by Randy Newman (\u003cem\u003eLosing You\u003c\/em\u003e), Allen Toussaint (\u003cem\u003eLast Train\u003c\/em\u003e), John Fogerty (\u003cem\u003eWrote a Song for Everyone\u003c\/em\u003e), and a couple from Tweedy himself (\u003cem\u003eYou Are Not Alone\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003ci\u003eOnly the Lord Knows\u003c\/i\u003e).  She also offers fresh readings of such traditional gospel tunes as \u003ci\u003eCreep Along Moses\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eIn Christ There Is No East or West\u003c\/i\u003e and a pair of classic Staples Singers cuts (\u003cem\u003eDon't Knock\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eDownward Road\u003c\/em\u003e) written by her late father, the great Roebuck \u003ci\u003ePops\u003c\/i\u003e Staples.  You Are Not Alone is a solid and highly enjoyable release that brims with Staples' soul, grace, and indomitable spirit. - iTunes\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCD Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRelease Date: September 14, 2010\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecord Label: Anti-\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUPC: 045778707621\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNumber of Discs: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Mavis Staples","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":23772333377,"sku":"Mavis Staples (3)","price":13.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1398\/5745\/files\/Mavis_Staples_You_Are_Not_Alone_CD.jpg?v=1739936347","url":"https:\/\/colliderecords.live\/products\/mavis-staples-you-are-not-alone","provider":"Collide Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
