JSngry Posted February 10, 2008 Author Report Posted February 10, 2008 Both Alice Russell & Amy Winehouse get remixed by the "white label" crowd some, & truthfully, I like what the remixers put behind their vocals more than what gets replaced if for no other reason than it brings better attention to the vocals.

Yes I have and it is! and I gather that pub MG frequents is the happeningenist! No. To mean to spend money on booze nowadays. But I can see the attraction of bands like those at your local pub or club. You'd have a bloody good evening/night out with them. So, good. MG Quote
Tom 1960 Posted April 28, 2010 Report Posted April 28, 2010 Anyone got the new one? I usually could care less about todays music for the most part, but this has floored me. I think it's great! Quote
BruceH Posted April 28, 2010 Report Posted April 28, 2010 Did anyone see them on Colbert a few days ago? Sharon Jones did a funny interview with Colbert and then the whole group performed a song. It was pretty damn great. Quote
neveronfriday Posted April 28, 2010 Report Posted April 28, 2010 I'm a huge fan of Jones & The Dap-Kings. Have everything (almost, I think) they've put out. My weekends often start with their releases. Just ... fun! Groovy. Quote

BFrank Posted April 29, 2010 Report Posted April 29, 2010 (edited) Good stuff! I saw her/them last month in Austin. Well worth seeing live if you get a chance. There was a short, entertaining interview in Sunday's NY Times. Edited April 29, 2010 by BFrank Quote

Great album!!! This is their best album since "Naturally." Some really great songs here. I'm particularly loving "Better Things," written by Homer Steinweiss, their drummer. Great song! Quote
ghost of miles Posted September 7, 2010 Report Posted September 7, 2010 Those who like Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings might want to check out Milwaukee's Kings Go Forth. Quote
