February 23, 201313 yr Member We are losing so many musical artists from my childhood or ones that my elders loved. RIP, Cleotha.
February 23, 201313 yr Member Sorry to hear this. I loved the Staples and their music. She was one of those singers who seemed to feel and live her music.
February 23, 201313 yr Author Member From such a wonderful time in music... in today's business, a man like Roebuck Staples wouldn't even get considered for a recording contract. And they'd want Mavis to wear something real skimpy.
February 23, 201313 yr Member May she rest in peace. It was nice to see Mavis at the Grammys this year. Edited February 23, 201313 yr by SFK
