The live experience of the soul-shaking sounds of Brooklyn-based Sharon Jones & the Dap Kings trembles you from the core. The deep growl of each note marinates in your bones as Jones' gospel roots and James Brown-infused vocals melt harmoniously with the wails of her backing band. These extended members of the Daptone Records family choose to record by way of analog tools instead of modern digital ones — further enhancing their musical foundations as revivalists of '60s and '70s funk and soul.
