My DSP 2: I’ll Take You There

Published on by suitejen1 Comment

Song: I’ll Take You There

Artist: The Staple Singers

Year: 1972

Favorite Lyric: (By default) I’ll take you there

Significance: Paul Shaffer likes to play this song. I can’t think of where else I would have heard it, so it must’ve been The Late Show. This song is pure funk. I think if you want to get Christmas tunes out of your head, you should play this song, kind of like if you want to get the taste of turkey out of your mouth, you should eat Mexican food.
