Title: the woman can sing!
Review: Very refreshing to hear a "new" singer sounding like one of the great soul vocalists from the 1970s. Of course, Sharon Jones is no sweet young thing who just burst upon the scene, but a singer who has paid her dues over the years. And man, can she sing! One of those vocalists who BELTS out a song and leaves you breathless. Sweet and sassy, fiery and funky; this is the real thing. And her band the Dap-Kings are VERY adept at playing their instruments; a tight band that knows where to place the groove. This was my first introduction to the music of Sharon Jones and I enjoyed it. Some of the songs might be a tad derivative, but all in all this is a most impressive performance.
