@dash132 UMmmmmmmmmmm excuse me...Sharon Jones is totally different from Amy and the rest of the British female explosion...She's been rocking in New York for years long before Amy, Adele or whomever else. Different styles altogether...don't get it twisted...Amy was a commercial hit..Sharon is still busting her ass to get the well-deserved recognition..even with the Dap Kings primarily performing with her not Amy Winehouse..She is the second coming of the God father of Soul nob doubt.
@Donnomercy totally agree with you about sharon!!! ive had the pleasure of seeing her perform 3 times now, and i have to say, its one of the most captivating show's ive ever seen....total goddess
My son recently saw her playing at a theater in Poughkeepsie and thought I'd like her music. He knows his daddy's taste pretty well. Real singing, real instruments, real soul. In this day and age? Imagine that.
Great Music, Great lyrics, Love the upbeat, legible content.
Sharon Jones & The Daptones are a welcome surprise to the world of Entertainment. Finally...................something of substance to listen to enjoy.

I can't believe I just found out about this beautiful soul today. I must have been living under a rock but now i know what music is all about. thnx Miss Jones!
I love discovering the source of tunes I love. This gorgeous Sharon Jones & Dap Kings tune is featured in a tune by one of my favourite hip hop artists.
SOOO HOTTT, heard the CD during a break before Grace Potter came on the stage at Bele Chere 2010, and had to track down who this was as soon as I had a chance....LOVE HER!!!!
This chick is so cool. Great voice reminds me of the early Motown years with Diana Ross, Mary Wells etc all those wonderful young black women with voices that sound so smooth and rich.
sklarbro country thank you!!!!
