History

The title of the album comes from words that Staples spoke to his daughter Mavis Staples just prior to his death. He told her, "don't lose this, here," referring to 10 recordings that he made in 1998. Mavis teamed up with Jeff Tweedy in 2014 to produce the tracks and finish the album. Tweedy had previously produced Mavis' albums You Are Not Alone and One True Vine. Tweedy played bass on the album and his son Spencer played drums.
