SHARON JONES and the DAP-KINGS at ACL

Holy cow, this show was a blast! Sharon Jones is a performer! I don't know how old she is but she is up there. She worked that stage the entire hour and it was plenty hot out. She never stopped. She pulled people from the audience, dancing, singing and working the crowd. This is rhythm and blues, soul music, kind of a throwback to the 60's Motown greats and 70's Aretha Franklin. The Dap-Kings are her back up band and include 3 horn players. They played their hit, 100 Days, 100 Nights and also my favorite, Tell Me You Love Me. This hour flew by way too quickly.
