I have been hearing a lot about Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings, one of my girlfriends keeps bragging about it. This weekend while in Starbucks, I noticed the album was there on sale. I did the impulse purchase thing and picked it up. I don’t remember the last time I bought music like that, just because my friend said it was good. Anywho, got home put it in and fell in love with the sounds I was hearing. I felt like I stepped into a time machine when I was listening to it, it reminds me of how amazing and raw soul music was. Just about great instruments, and a powerful voice. Originally from Brooklyn, Sharon Jones & The Dap -Kings have been in the game for over 10 years and I am now finding out about them, this I believe is there 7th album.
This album gets my vote, I’d recommend you pick it up. I am happy as well that my friend recommended such a great album.
Here is a song that stuck out on the record, its called Give It Back – here they are performing it !
