sunkilmoonfan Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 After years of 7" singles and one-off downloads, Sharon Jones & the Dap Kings are finally releasing a legit holiday record. This announcement comes with an additional, less celebratory announcement, that Sharon's cancer has returned. She seems to be suggesting that she's going to perform through chemo - hopefully that helps her get through it. That sad news aside, this is going to be the Christmas release of the season. I know it's early to be thinking about that... but it would also be great to show Sharon some love for all the great music she's put out.

Canal Ocho Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Awful news about her cancer returning. Sucks that she has to go through it again. Seen them play live a few times; she's an absolute blast on stage and the band is so good and tight. Looking forward to the album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerseydave77 Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 From the bits I heard this album is going to be a ton of fun. Sharon is strong as can be and in amazing spirits despite this obstacle. May we all be so damn positive when faced with something so large.

lexicondevil Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 If anyone can beat cancer, it is Sharon Jones. She is a force of nature. I will be buying this record for selfish reasons and also to support. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerseydave77 Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Also, all of you need to keep an eye out for the new film - I mention it out of selfish pride. November 12 is the US premiere (in NYC) and I might swing 2-4 tickets to give away on here. lexicondevil 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsimmons Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Why selfish pride? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerseydave77 Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 It's the film I've been producing for the past 2.5 years. Premiere was amazing. Ehdawds on here came since he's Canadian. Figured a few VCers might dig this. Gratifying when people get what you set out to do as seems to be happening. sunkilmoonfan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsimmons Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 My wife and I are really looking forward to it. Will it have a VOD option before the year is out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunkilmoonfan Posted November 3, 2015 Author Share Posted November 3, 2015 The record is up on Spotify for those on the fence. YOU SHALL FALL OFF IT IMMEDIATELY So good! https://play.spotify.com/album/1wvM0On3hTkvoQVVdodNzk?play=true&utm_source=open.spotify.com&utm_medium=open Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerseydave77 Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 I'm in here somewhere but I'm not saying where. I'm posting because Sharon was so awesome at this premiere. At the end she belts out a bit of Gospel Acapella. Thought some folks on here might dig it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love signed LPs... and being a father to a young child, I don't get to as many shows as I once did. I love opportunities like this.
