The new Jeff Tweedy-produced Mavis Staples album, You Are Not Alone isn’t officially set for release until next Tuesday, but thanks to NPR‘s First Listen, you can hear it in it’s entirety right now.

The soulful 45-minute record can be streamed right now at NPR.org. We encourage you to take a listen as soon as possible because our first impression is that it’s one of 2010′s best. We’ll have a full review up on the site in the coming days.

In other albums-currently-being-streamed-before-their-release news, NPR also has the new Superchunk record, Majesty Shredding, up for listening at this very moment, and Weezer’s latest, Hurley, is up at their Myspace right now…although you can probably go ahead and skip that one.
