  • There have been lots of covers of "Since I Fell For You" over the years since it was composed by Buddy Johnson in 1945. The versions by Dinah Washington and Lenny Welch are very lovely but for sheer breathtaking soul, power and emotion, this version by Mavis Staples is the best in my opinion. I would go as far as to say that this is one of my favorite female vocal performances of all time. I hope someone out there loves it as much as I do :).

      I love MAVIS STAPLE , she the real deal Since i felt you, you made me leave my happy home, i heard manny version of this song but MAVIS STAPLE has that bluesy sound, The STAPLE SINGERS was Gospel ,and folks,chorus with blues music sounds, if Mavis STAPLE has started out with Blues, and Rhymes and Bluses singing, all i says move over Athera franklin here comes Mavis STAPLE. Mavis STAPLE was Second to none! Her voice was Barton, deep and sexy, and make you feel every bit of love and note. That she sang, i love my self some Areath franklin Queen of Soul musice, but i think Mavis STAPLE would have given her a little bit Challenge, Mavis STAPLE been around about the same time Queen of Soul, or maybe Pop STAPLE been around about the same time The REV.C.L.FRANKLIN did i read some where Pop STAPLE was Singing with his own Band back i 1945 they all knew each other they all came from Mississippi. And Jackson Mississippi. So Please listen to MAVIS STAPLE sing Since i felt for you, sing by MAVIS STAPLE solo in 1970 the year. THANKYOU.!

    I fell for it back in '71 bro. At her best, Mavis was one of the best "soul" female vocalist of all time. IMHO, no one has topped her version of " A House is not a Home"

    While I love Mavis Staples and this is an amazing version of the track that I have known most of my life. In the 70's the track was also released by Laura Lee on Hot Wax Records and it is a dynamo. Check it out there are a few copies on RUclips. At some point we will make a production of it.

      Laura Lee has a fantastic voice but I find the arrangement of her version too fussy. I much prefer this, more straight forward interpretation. It's a simple song, no need to over do it and Mavis got the balance right in my opinion.
