Soul Revival!
As if soul ever needed a revival. This album is absolutely magnificent soul as REAL and TIMELESS as it comes! Sharon Jones AND her Dap Kings are an utter national treasure which the USA should cherish. Wondrous.

I didn't know who Sharon Jones was I took a chance and purchased her CD I'm glad I did this CD is Naturally So worth it!
This albim when I heard it for the first time, the song that got my attention was "How do I let a good man down?" Im saying this woman can BLOW and has so much emotional soul NO COMPARRISON TO AMY! Sharon bloes her away for me!
I was looking for tracks by Amy Winehouse. Since emusic doesn't have any, it directed me to this artist as someone else I might enjoy. I listened to several of the sample clips. This is what I will say..the Dap-Kings rock, of course. Sharon Jones ( who I had never heard before) has a strong, and very appealing voice, and one that's very good for this genre. However, I don't understand the negative comparisons being made here relative to Winehouse. I think Amy ( when she wasn't messed up with drugs, and hopefully will be clean again someday) has a very strong voice, and it's not inferior to that of Sharon Jones. More important to me, IMHO, Winehouse's songs are just more interesting, both melodically and lyrically. No disrespect to Ms. Jones.
sharon jones breask i down in this album as well as all of her other ones...so funky soulful and real. go see her live.
This was also my first SJDK album, and it's still my favorite. I worked for Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings selling merch for their 100 Days 100 Nights US tour, and even after hearing each song every night for months, I still want to hear them again and again! Sharon's energy is mind-boggling, and I cannot recommend seeing her live enough!
This is the first Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings album I listened to. To put it simply, it's a superb album! It is a must have. This has some great tunes on it, both slow and fast jams. You can totally shake your groove tooshy to this album!
Ronson and Winehouse shamelessly used the Dap-Kings - unfortunately the hype overshadowed just how much more superior their original singer was to the Ronson version. Sharon Jones has a superior voice, timing, sense of the music and has SOUL - and can probably sing without tattoos, drugs and alcohol and tantrums. A great album that makes me want to dance (probably not a good idea).
Never used emusic for R&B but came across Sharon Jones in a CMJ sampler. Great sound with a great energy.
First of all, this woman puts on an amazing concert. Secondly, her records keep up the energy with some great retro tunes.
