Candi Staton - Jolene
For about forty years this song remained unreleased. Thanks to the guys at Kent Records it has finally been released last year on the double disc set "Evidence: The Complete Fame Records Masters" which features all of Staton's recordings for the legendary Fame Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama. "Jolene" has been recorded many times, most notably by Dolly Parton and Olivia Newton-John, but no one knew - until last year - that the best version was made by Staton. You still can hear the original country composition, but she manages to mix it with a lot of that good old southern soul and here's the result. Well done Candi!

Under their Director's Cut guise, Frankie Knuckles and Eric Kupper deliver two versions that pair Staton's inimitable vocal with Knuckle's legendary house chords with stunningly effective results. Larse meanwhile goes deep with a club-ready cut that demonstrates the versatility of Staton's vocal, sitting proudly over a beautifully melancholic piece of production....and is already becoming one of the vocal records of the summer 2012 season.

At the age of eleven or twelve, Staton and her sister Maggie were sent to the Jewell Christian Academy in Nashville, Tennessee. Her vocal abilities quickly set her apart from the crowd; the school's pastor teamed the two sisters with a third girl (Naomi Harrison) to form the Jewell Gospel Trio. As teenagers, they toured the traditional gospel circuit in the 1950s with the Soul Stirrers, C. L. Franklin and Mahalia Jackson. They recorded several sides for Nashbro, Apollo and Savoy Records between 1953 and 1963.
