The title track to the album "When Do We Get Paid" by Staples Jr.
Singers is available on
Bandcamp
with the full album due on 6 May 2022.
Despite the name, they have nothing to do with the Staples Singers, they
named themselves after them in 1971. They were a family band of teenagers
Annie, A.R.C., Ronnel and Edward Brown from Aberdeen Mississippi formed in
1970. They recorded this album in 1975 on Brenda Records and were still
performing forty years later under the name The Brown Singers which they
adopted in the late 70s. By all accounts very few copies were pressed and only one has ever sold on Discogs fetching £570.
You can read a more detailed account of them on Bandcamp and there are a couple of video clips from Luaka Bop below.
