5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent stuff., June 23, 2005

To be sure, this album should be in everyone's collection. Heavy funk (akin to many contributions from Daptone Records) prevails here with some excellent vocals from Joseph henry. I highly recommend this album along with Sharon Jones. They will not disappoint.

Daptone Records is the most exciting thing to happen to music in years. It's clear there's still a lot of funk territory to be explored. There guys sound so classic, yet so current at the same time. They capture the sound completely, and deliver it up with such sonic perfection. This is some of the tastiest chicken you'll find!

Super funky--the only reason i didn't give this five stars is that The Meters did the same thing some twenty/thirty years ago. Check out their early stuff if you like the sound of this CD (or the "Funkify Your Life" box), and the other Daptone CDs are great as well.
