Mavis Staples - Sad And Beautiful World LP (Marbled Violet Vinyl)
Grim days call for fierce love. And Mavis Staples, one of the most enduring figures in American music, is laying it down. Sad And Beautiful World is the latest solo album from a national treasure and multigenerational talent.
Produced by Brad Cook, Sad And Beautiful World spans seven decades of the American songbook — a range nearly as vast as Mavis’ career — and includes reinventions of timeless songs by Tom Waits, Sparklehorse, Gillian Welch, Frank Ocean and more.
Collaborators include Buddy Guy, Bonnie Raitt, Jeff Tweedy, Derek Trucks, Katie Crutchfield, MJ Lenderman, and Justin Vernon.
