14012014 - Sharon Jones and The Dap Kings "Give the People What They Want"

My first meeting with The Dap Kings was without the wonderful Ms Jones. They were Amy Winehouse's backing band at the Hultsfred Festival in Sweden, and although this was one of the occasions when the haystack haired one lasted the whole show without falling over or making a total fool of herself - although she was definitely, by her own charming definition, "cunted", the reason why the show didn't fall apart was obvious. Those wonderful Kings of Dap saved the 'House from collapsing like a sand castle under a tidal wave, and actually brought some glimmers of magic to the performance as a whole. And, of course, when Sharon Jones is behind the mic, what you get is warm, authentic soul that only a very bad person could dislike. And I am not a bad person!
