In 2024 and I love how we still celebrate the amazing Sharon Jones. I still think about how lucky I am to see her live back in Melbourne, Australia. Her music still brings a lot of joy to myself and so many over of us.
The Dap Kings are just plain cool--a little Blues Brothers going on...and you never will go wrong with Miss Sharon Jones. We can see her greatness here on RU-vid...bless her talent and spirit forever.🎷🎺🎸💎💎💎💖
There is no price I won't pay to see this woman and her band live the next time they come to town, I missed this performance and I won't miss the next one. Words can't explain what I feel with this music but needless to say I feel thankful it exists!!!
She is exciting to see live, so much energy!!! Saw them in Victoria recently and they brought the entire house to their feet for the entire show!! Sharon Jones is Awesome!!
A true talent. It's unfortunate that she was not more visible on the national playlist. This is the real deal! Then again, one could argue that mega stardom may have sapped her like it has many talented artists who burn from being under the bright spotlight of fame. God bless you Mrs, Jones.
Saw her and the band at Woodford Festival last night. This lady is the greatest. The most amazing set of live music I have ever witnessed. Ridiculous energy. Incredible. Superlatives don't do her justice ... and the band kicks butt! She will go down as one of the greatest.
Sharon's the real deal .First class talent. Genuine soul. And the Dap-Kings are real pros....none of that headache inducing acid rock style guitar with distortion going on .......just pure musical notes with great soul built in .
I read about Sharon's death in the news and have to confess I had never heard of her, so thought I would check her out. How could I not have heard of her before? What a performer! Vibrant, passionate and holds that audience in the palm of her hand
I found out about Sharon Jones from seeing James Hunter six and noticing her on same label, checked her out and love her! I'm with you guys too late discovering this amazing singer
I've read so many comments saying they've never listened to her before, that's too bad. Leonard Cohen,now Sharon,R.I.P. to two great artists. And music lovers,don't get your music fed to you.
Same here also, watched her Doc on nexflix last night as I couldn't sleep, blew me away, devastated to know she has gone having just discovered her. Fabulous lady.
I made my decision And I tried to walk away But Lord, you know I wanna stay by your side Baby, loving you It's so easy to do You can say that we're through I'm gonna be still loving only, only you
i never heard of her and she has a grammy nomination but i'll be catching up on this artist. Pancreatic Cancer is the worst, My mother passed from this at 61. There's no early detection for this monster. May she rest in peace...alone with my moms Mildred
"Do not Marvel at this, because the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out, those who did good things to a resurrection of life, those who practiced vile things to a resurrection of judgment." (John 5: 28, 29) RIP
Where can I find this full concert? I've been looking for a certain song of hers I only heard once, over ten years ago! I saw it on pbs...i'm pretty sure it was from this concert. It's so ingrained in my mind and I just can't complete my life without hearing it at least 100 more times!
must be something,about the name Jones: two greats the amazing Linda Jones of 1960:s and the fantastic Sharon Jones / from essences of Jamal.com of Washington DC.
I am just now finding out about this woman. A shame that she has passed. Just read an account of what happened. She went out in a beautiful way.. www.latimes.com/entertainment/music/la-et-ms-sharon-jones-gabriel-roth-last-days-20161119-story.html
i tried to express my thoughts on this amazing woman, but it was just not good enough, so ill leave it to Miss Maya: Pretty women wonder where my secret lies. I’m not cute or built to suit a fashion model’s size But when I start to tell them, They think I’m telling lies. I say, It’s in the reach of my arms, The span of my hips, The stride of my step, The curl of my lips. I’m a woman Phenomenally. Phenomenal woman, That’s me. I walk into a room Just as cool as you please, And to a man, The fellows stand or Fall down on their knees. Then they swarm around me, A hive of honey bees. I say, It’s the fire in my eyes, And the flash of my teeth, The swing in my waist, And the joy in my feet. I’m a woman Phenomenally. Phenomenal woman, That’s me. Men themselves have wondered What they see in me. They try so much But they can’t touch My inner mystery. When I try to show them, They say they still can’t see. I say, It’s in the arch of my back, The sun of my smile, The ride of my breasts, The grace of my style. I’m a woman Phenomenally. Phenomenal woman, That’s me. Now you understand Just why my head’s not bowed. I don’t shout or jump about Or have to talk real loud. When you see me passing, It ought to make you proud. I say, It’s in the click of my heels, The bend of my hair, the palm of my hand, The need for my care. ’Cause I’m a woman Phenomenally. Phenomenal woman, That’s me.
