Album Notes & Community Reviews

Produced and written entirely by Ben Harper, the legendary soul vocalist delivers a stripped-down, deeply resonant collection of blues and gospel-infused anthems. Celebrating her 80th birthday, Staples utilizes her remarkably weathered voice to convey themes of enduring civil rights struggles and persistent, unifying hope.
