It was about 6 months ago that I was looking through my itunes library which I share with my good friend Rudi Goblen (myspace.com/rudigoblen) when I came across Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings. At the time when I listened to their music I wouldn't have believed the records I was hearing were released in the 90's. That would explain me getting the same feeling when I heard Amy Winehouse's newest album "Back To Black". I would later learn that the Dap Kings were the backing band to her album and live show (which I caught at coachella 07). Needless to say, i've been jamming out to The Dap Kings with Sharon and Amy. If your into dope funk you must check them out.
You can also take a tour of their Brooklyn studio which is as old school as it gets....
Daptone Studio Tour
Stay tuned for more "Lookout"......and for god sakes go buy a Sharon Jones/Dap Kings record........
