I'll Take You There

While we're doing that Soul/R&B thing, here's the Staple Singers with their number one hit from 1972, "I'll Take You There."  This R&B classic features Mavis Staple's powerful vocals and the Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section (aka The Swampers).  The Memphis Horns added the signature soul horn lines.  This song was recorded at the famous Muscle Shoals Sound Studios in Alabama.  In the 1970s Memphis based Stax records began bringing artists down to Muscle Shoals.  Many other artists recorded with the Swampers including Lynyrd Skynyrd, the Rolling Stones, and Joe Cocker.
