daptone records - home of soul, funk, and gospel, rose out of the ashes of descor records. featuring the incredible soul powerhouse backup band, the dap-kings, daptone also features such stellar acts as the sugarman three, the budos band, the poets of rhythm, the daktaris, the mighty imperials, lee fields, charles bradley, binky griptite, and naomi davis. top of the daptone stable for me though is the incredible singer sharon jones who with her backup band the dap-kings, tears up sixties and seventies soul and funk like nothing i’ve heard since that time.but first, let’s take a tour of the daptone recording studio . . .
sharon jones and the dap-kings “100days, 100nights” . . .
sharon jones rehearsal of a james brown medley . . .
sharon jones and the dap-kings live . . . i’ll say that in this rare instance, the dap-kings are the stars of this track . . .
if you like what you hear and want to know more or see more or even buy some music then drop in on daptone records.
