The last testament of the legendary Pops Staples

With Mavis Staples, Jeff Tweedy (Wilco) and featuring the original Staple Singers

Album download card included

Don't Lose This is an album of previously-unreleased music by the late Pops Staples with new production by Mavis Staples and Jeff Tweedy of Wilco. The album features 10 songs, originally recorded and produced by Pops in 1999, but left unfinished at the time of his death in 2000.

The album, which also features newly recorded vocals by Mavis Staples, takes its title directly from the instruction Pops gave to his daughter as the two listened to the unfinished recording before his death: "Don't lose this."

Mavis didn't, and in 2014 brought the tapes of her father's last work to her recent collaborator, Tweedy, for completion. The two had previously teamed up on Mavis' recent solo releases, One True Vine and the Grammy-winning You Are Not Alone.
