Zitat des Tages von Mavis Staples:
My high-school a cappella teacher would embarrass me in front of the choir. 'Mavis, you're in the basement. Mavis, you're singing with the boys.' I said, 'Mr. Finch, my voice isn't soprano. I can't sing up there with the girls.' So I just got out of the choir.
I sang with my father for over 50 years, and now all of a sudden he's gone, and I just dropped out.
If you don't get out among the people, how are you going to know what they need to hear about?
I'm just singing what I feel in my heart.
I don't know which way I'm going. My next CD might be country, might be Dylan, might be Mick Jagger. I don't know. I love a challenge.
