i'm going to buy it for:

"Prince signed Staples to his Paisley Park label in the early '90s and wrote and produced her album "The Voice." Staples thinks it's the best record she's made, but it fell victim to Prince's famous feud with Warner Bros. Records.

She'd had a similar feeling more than two decades earlier when her albums for the Stax label and its Volt subsidiary were overlooked, she says, because the company was busy promoting Isaac Hayes."

While good, I wouldn't say that 'The Voice' is Mavis' best record.

But it's good the mighty Mavis is bringin' on some more sanctified goodness. smile
