download: widespread panic ft. mavis staples - hope in a hopeless world (11/16/02)
related: mavis staples' we'll never turn back was one of my favorite albums of the year & while there are subtle mentions of pops throughout, maybe one of the most noticeable tributes she makes to her father is opening the album with a take on "down in mississippi", a traditional blues song that pops sang on his 1992 solo debut, peace to the neighborhood...interestingly, both versions were produced by ry cooder...also, i couldn't mention peace to the neighborhood without posting my favorite track from it, "pray on my child", in which mavis takes the lead vocals...i'm not a very religious person, but sometimes mavis makes me think i could be.
