In a world of image and superficality, Sharon Jones is a breath of fresh air. She seems to be from another era. She reminds me of great female vocalist, like Ann Peebles,Lyn Collins,Marva Whitney,Bettye Lavette,Vicki Anderson,Betty Harris,Ann Sexton,Ruby Andrews, etc. By the way, take a listen to her rendition of Woody Guthrie's song, This Land is Our Land. All I can say is that the first time I heard it I couldn't believe I was listening to a old folk song. Sharon Jones is unique.
@Neequu78@SoulTooSoul You're right. Sharon is 4Real. She is one of those artist, that should be seen and heard live. By the way, check out Naomi Shelton & the Gospel Queens. She also records for DapTone records. She is a great vocalist.

She's so amazing. I saw her live and had listened to her prior. I literally can't compare anyone else to her. She's that good.
