Editorial Reviews

2009 release from the acclaimed Southern Soul/Gospel vocalist. The album was produced by Mark Nevers (Lambchop, Silver Jews) at his home studio in Nashville and features Dan Penn and Mary Gauthier penned tracks plus appearances from Mose Davis of Detroit Funk legends The Fabulous Counts. Honest Jon s Mark Ainley and producer Mark Nevers searched near and far for both new and vintage songs to add to the album. Friends sent Ainley tapes of obscure soul and country songs while Nevers called upon his Nashville songwriting buddies. 11 tracks. Honest Jon's.

I'm just not sure that it gets any better than this. No silly riffing, no vocal gymnastics just to prove that she can do it, no insincere or forced emotion. Just simple, honest purity from an amazing lady. Highly recommended.

This review is from: Who's Hurting Now? (Audio CD)

Candi Staton is a legendary singer who with each new release is something to look forward to and this Memphis Classic features Ms. Staton in peak form and hopefully this tremendous collection will get the attention deserved of such a perfect set of superb and real performances that stay with the listener long after they are over. Magnificent collection could be called "Candi In Memphis" as everything from songs to arrangements is complete perfection...then there is that soulful glorious voice and please pay note Grammy Foundation! Anyone with a love and appreciation of great singers of Jazz, Blues & Soul don't miss this one...Candi really took it home this time out and already looking forward to what is next from this incredibly gifted lady...Bravo Candi!

Candi please come to LA...Wiltern Theater would be awesome!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Love This Woman - Always have, August 22, 2009

A Fan "A Fan" (San Francisco CA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Who's Hurting Now? (Audio CD)

I discovered her in the 70's with her dance tunes, then found her original southern soul LPs from Memphis. I have always felt her voice and the hurt and hope in it. She spent most of the 80s and 90s recording gospel. Now she is back with another soul CD after "His Hands". Amazing. I dare you to listen to "Mercy Now" or "Get Your Hands Dirty" and not feel the power of music in all its tender glory. She has always been one of my favorites and this CD reminds me why. It will be under a few friends' cChristmas trees this year!
