Answer Me - Sharon Jones, Bignon, J. Product Description 100 Days, 100 Nights comes with a FREE bonus CD titled 'Binky Griptite's GhettoFunkPowerHour'. It is an HOUR LONG mixtape-style compilation that includes highlights from the entire Daptone catalog, with Dap-Kings MC/guitarist Binky Griptite providing commentary between songs. Talk about your added value! In the new millennium, soul has become big business again. But despite succulent re-issues from labels like Astralwerks and Light in the Attic, the resurgence of seasoned soul sisters like Bettye LaVette, and the volcanic popularity of new-soul crooners like Amy Winehouse, the champions of the new generation's purist strain are Sharon Jones & the Dap Kings. After the often upbeat, always exciting sounds of 2005's Naturally, the band's next outing comes off as a slightly more tempered affair. The title track opens with an indefatigable statement of purpose, dropping into a late-stage, sub-halftime groove so Jones can fully 'take [her] time' lamenting her missing man. Elsewhere, her voice effortless treads the heights and depths of its range with timeless aplomb ('Be Easy,' 'When the Other Foot Drops, Uncle,' 'Answer Me'). The Dap Kings themselves have reached a pocket-digging near-perfection, recent collaborations with Kanye West, Lily Allen, and the aforementioned Winehouse, yielding the sounds of a band at the top of its game. At times, these tracks court the uninspired flavor of the wholly derivative, but in all, 100 Days, 100 Nights makes for a very welcome addition to any avid listener's contemporary soul music library. --Jason Kirk Although singer Sharon Jones first began attracting attention during the late '90s, her smoky, soulful voice and blistering grooves harked back three decades earlier to the heyday of funk, evoking the music of James Brown protégés like Marva Whitney and Lynn Collins with uncanny precision; not surprising, given that the veteran Jones was well into her 40s by the time she began earning wide recognition. On their own independent Daptone label, the band has sold over 50,000 copies of their first two records (not to mention over 20K vinyl 7's) without any major label support or promotion. The Dap-Kings have been highly sought after, working with artist such as Amy Winehouse, Kanye West, Mark Ronson, Hank Schocklee, Kenny Dope, Lilly Allen, and Rhymefest.

I got this back in December, and I'm now kicking myself for not discovering her earlier albums, and I'm now in the process of buying them from Amazon. She can sing, and for the younger people reading this, you don't have to look like Beyoncé to get an album. (Sharon Jones is not ugly by any stretch of the imagination, by the way. Besides, she's a better singer than Beyoncé and most of the pretty girl singers that the Music Industry has forced on ... Read More Rating - Oh YEAH!!! I bought this after reading the other reviews about the ablum and am THRILLED to say that all the good things are TRUE!!! This is a friggin' classic from A to tomorrow. All that which sounds paradoxically, classically true in Amy Wine-weed-and-whatever-else-detox-house is even better here with Sharon's vastly superior vocals. FYI, that which turns me on with this disc is largely true of James Hunter's "People Gonna Talk" disc. They both do a fantastic ... Read More Rating - THE REAL DEAL I really hate all this retro this and throwback that. THIS IS SOUL MUSIC, R and goddamned B !!! RnB is not some idiot note bending over computer generated beeps and thuds. I dont care what MTV calls it. Buy this today, and something tells me your Beyonce, Usher and Justine Timberlake CD's will be in the trash tomorrow. Rating - Soul music lives! I was late, like most people were, in discovering Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings, but I am so glad I did! Recently I heard the title cut being played in the Virgin Mega Store, and was totally blown away by the music and the vocalist. Turns out I had been seeing this CD on display for a LONG time - around the time when Amy Winehouse blew up. Yet Sharon and her group were getting little to no publicity, doing the same type of music as the troubled beehive ... Read More see more reviews See all music titles by Sharon Jones & the Dap Kings
