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.

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".

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.

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.

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."

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. 💛💛💛
