Staples came to Woodstock, NY to perform as part of Helm’s renowned Midnight Ramble series, and the ensuing concert—available now for the first time on the rousing new ANTI- Records release Carry Me Home—would mark a personal high watermark for both artists. Captured live in the summer of 2011, Carry Me Home showcases two of the past century’s most iconic voices coming together in love and joy, tracing their shared roots and celebrating the enduring power of faith and music. The setlist was righteous that night, mixing vintage gospel and soul with timeless folk and blues, and the performances were loose and playful, fueled by an ecstatic atmosphere that was equal parts family reunion and tent revival. Read between the lines, though, and there’s an even more poignant story at play here. Neither Staples nor Helm knew that this would be their last performance together—the collection marks one of Helm’s final recordings before \r\nhis death—and listening back now, a little more than a decade later, tunes like “This May Be The Last Time” and “Farther Along” take on new, bittersweet meaning. The result is an album that’s at once a time capsule and a memorial, a blissful homecoming and a fond farewell, a once-in-a-lifetime concert—and friendship—preserved for the ages. Staples and the night’s soulful crew of backup singers handle the vast majority of the vocal work here, but it’s perhaps album closer “The Weight,” which features Helm chiming in with lead vocals for the first time, that stands as the concert’s most emotional moment. “It never crossed my mind that it might be the last time we’d see each other,” says Staples. “He was so full of life and so happy that week. He was the same old Levon I’d always known, just a beautiful spirit inside and out.” “My dad built The Midnight Rambles to restore his spirit, his voice, \r\nand his livelihood,” says Helm’s daughter, Amy, who sang backup \r\nvocals with her father and Staples at their performance. “He’d risen back up from all that had laid him down, and to have Mavis come sing and sanctify that stage was the ultimate triumph for him.” Artist Mavis Staples & Levon Helm Genre Americana / Country , Soul / Funk Label Anti Buying Options 2LP , 2LP Coloured Vinyl Format 2LP , Coloured Vinyl Condition New Country UK Track Listings This Is My Country Trouble In My Mind Farther Along Hand Writing On The Wall I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel To Be Free Move Along Train This May Be The Last Time When I Go Away Wide River To Cross You Got To Move You Got To Serve Somebody The Weight Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Americana / Country View Product Quick View Mavericks, The Moon & Stars Americana / Country | Mono Mundo Recordings | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 17th May 2024 £20.00 Select options Mavericks, The Moon & Stars £20.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Mono Mundo Recordings Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 17th May 2024 Read More Select options Paul's picks View Product Quick View Calexico and Iron & Wine Years to Burn (Coloured Vinyl) Americana / Country | City Slang | 180g, 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 14th June 2019 £23.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Calexico and Iron & Wine Years to Burn (Coloured Vinyl) £23.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: City Slang SKU: SLANG50224X Formats: 180g, 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 14th June 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Vic Chesnutt Ghetto Bells Americana / Country | New West | 180g, 2LP, Includes Download Code Released 28th July 2017 £26.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Vic Chesnutt Ghetto Bells £26.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: New West SKU: NW5161 Formats: 180g, 2LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 28th July 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Cory Chisel and the Wandering Sons Old Believers Americana / Country | Readymade Records | 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 8th September 2012 £14.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Cory Chisel and the Wandering Sons Old Believers £14.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Readymade Records SKU: 407333 Formats: 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 8th September 2012 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Shelby Lynne Shelby Lynne Americana / Country | Everso | 1LP Released 17th April 2020 £15.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Shelby Lynne Shelby Lynne £15.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Everso SKU: 72494LP Formats: 1LP Released Date: 17th April 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Shania Twain Greatest Hits – Summer Tour Edition 2024 Americana / Country | UMR | 1LP Released 28th June 2024 £24.00 Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders Shania Twain Greatest Hits – Summer Tour Edition 2024 £24.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: UMR SKU: 6564663 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 28th June 2024 Read More Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View David Rawlings Poor David’s Almanack Americana / Country | Acony Records | 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 6th September 2017 £25.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders David Rawlings Poor David’s Almanack £25.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Acony Records SKU: 0805147171336 Formats: 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 6th September 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Buffalo Springfield Buffalo Springfield (Atlantic 75 Series) Americana / Country | Analogue Productions (Atlantic 75 Series) | 180g, 2LP, 45rpm, Gatefold Sleeve Released 25th December 2025 £75.00 Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders Buffalo Springfield Buffalo Springfield (Atlantic 75 Series) £75.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Analogue Productions (Atlantic 75 Series) SKU: AAPA 023-45 Formats: 180g, 2LP, 45rpm, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 25th December 2025 Read More Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Lumineers, The Cleopatra Americana / Country | Decca | 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 4th April 2016 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Lumineers, The Cleopatra £22.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Decca SKU: 4770572 Formats: 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 4th April 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Mark Olson Many Colored Kite Americana / Country | Rykodisc | 1LP Released 30th July 2010 £11.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Mark Olson Many Colored Kite £11.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Rykodisc SKU: RLP11022 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 30th July 2010 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Americana / Country Start again
