Naturally by
Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings on the sound
system at
Vic's Prospect coffee house in Longmont, Colorado. Hard to believe this band has been doing its raw, 70s-style funk-threaded thing only since 2002. When the first cut came on, I thought it was

Dap Dippin' with Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings, their propulsive 2002 debut that includes their cover of
This Land Is Your Land used in the
I Love New York ad. Both albums belong in the collections of everyone who digs classic soul.
