| Throughout the distinct phases of their recording career, from |
| straight rhythmic gospel to Civil Rights protest anthems, to what |
| might be called soul folk to the funky grit of their Stax years, the |
| Staple Singers always delivered songs that said something, and even |
| when the grooves of songs like 1971's "Respect Yourself" or 1972's |
| reggae-tinged "I'll Take You There" were sending people to the |
| dancefloors, the lyrics were hopeful, message-driven missives of |
| support for a better self, a better community, and a better world. |
| |
| Stax Profiles is a fine anthology which collects tracks recorded |
| between 1968 and 1975 during the Staple Singers productive stay at |
| Stax Records, and includes both "Respect Yourself" and "I'll Take You |
| There," as well as the powerful "City in the Sky," "Touch a Hand, |
| Make a Friend," "Are You Sure," with its brilliantly staggered |
| vocals, and the Steve Cropper produced "Long Walk to D.C." There |
| isn't a single lame track here, and while there are lengthier |
| collections of the Staple Singers' Stax years on the market, this one |
| has a wonderful flow. |
