With four albums under their belts--including 2007’s 100 Days, 100 Nights--and their newfangled Bosco Mann-produced, Daptone Records-released, I Learned The Hard Way, Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings have managed to become more than a copy-cat band; successfully carrying on the long-lasting tradition of celebrated, American soul groups.Check out their power-packed ode to “Money,” where soul sister number one is pining for coin and dishing on the recession, “Money, why won’t you stay awhile? /…. Banks folding / President scratching his head / The economy is bad / Wall Street about to lose their mind / Going up and down,” This is a street-tough track that lurks to start, smooth as dynaflow, building into a full-fledged blistering seismic shuffle - a funktified wildfire where the eight-piece Dap-Kings set the backing ablaze.
Sharon Jones, vocals. The Dap Kings are: Homer Steinweiss, drums; Binky Griptite, guitar; Bugaloo Velez, congas; Dave Guy, trumpet; Tommy 'TNT' Brenneck, guitar; Bosco Mann, bass; Neal Sugarman,Tenor; Ian Hendrickson-Smith, baritone.
