Free Music Review: If Not Now, When?
Hit: 4 Stars

When will the folks at Sony decide to release the complete recording of this concert? This is not the original version of this album. It does have some music on here that is not on the original but the original version has the chants and incantations that should never have been removed. I don't understand the logic of some record producers and manufacturers.

Freedom Highway Poster

Digitally remastered reissue of 1965 album with original artwork packaged in a tri-fold digipak. CBS. 2004.
Recorded in the late 1960s, the strong gospel soul hymns and idealistic moral gospel folksongs on Freedom Highway represent the Staple Singers' artistic apex. Pops Staples's reverb-saturated guitar hangs alone in the air while Mavis and the other family members' voices encircle it with warm sounds and defiant words. All this music is 100 percent amazing--from Pops's poignant delivery of "Be Careful Of The Stones That You Throw" to the group's terrific, invigorating civil rights anthem "Freedom Highway" and a cover of Buffalo Springfield's "For What It's Worth" that adds new dimensions of meaning to the hippie hit. Too poppy to be considered mainstream gospel but not as watered- down as the group became in their mid-1970s pop phase, the Staple Singers' late-'60s music easily ranks alongside the era's hit makers, far outstripping their talent with little flash and pure, lovely sounding conviction. --Mike McGonigal
