Hope will present 13 songs from Staples' 2007 sold-out set at Chicago's The Hideout. And that performance, which used material from all along the singer's 52-year career, is apparently a worthy one of entering posterity's handbag: it was unanimously praised by the Chicago Sun Times, Time Out Chicago and Daytrotter.
Tracklisting:
- For What It's Worth
- Eyes on the Prize
- Down in Mississippi
- Wade in the Water
- Waiting For My Child
- This Little Light
- Why Am I Treated So Bad
- Freedom Highway
- We Shall Not Be Moved
- Circle Intro (encore)
- Will The Circle Be Unbroken (encore)
- On My Way (encore)
- I'll Take You There (encore)
