Daptone Reco

Throughout their career, Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings remained in high demand both publicly and privately to recreate and often re-imagine songs by other artists. More often than not, these covers were recorded by request ' commissioned for placement in movies, television programs, tribute albums, or for samples. This album compiles some of their most popular as well as never-before-heard renditions.Though the band has mostly built their career on a prolific catalog of originals, these forays into other artists' compositions lay bare their gift for arrangement and the unmatched studio prowess that earned them their reputation as The Baddest Band in the Land.

Hunter, James Six: Nick of Time [Vinyl LP]

On February 2nd, 2018, Daptone Records will release Whatever It Takes, the sixth album by The James Hunter Six. Hunter had already established himself as a permanent fixture in the world of Rhythm and Soul with his five previous albums, each more poignant and well-executed than the last. However, this record has buried them all. His voice has never been more compelling, his songs never more elegantly crafted. Recorded to tape at Daptone's Penrose Studios in Riverside, California, Bosco Mann's production elevates Hunter's arrangements to the altitude they deserve.

Thee Sacred Souls: Got a Story to Tell [Vinyl LP]

Daptone Records presenterar stolt Staten Island-afro-funk-kollektivets album nummer tre. Konvolutets kobra redo för attack ger en indikation om musiken. Vi kan vänta oss tendenser mot både det giftiga och psykedeliska. Eller som Pitchforkmedia skriver: The end result is something so hip it could kill you in large doses - in the right dose it just plain kills.
