Daptone

Daptone is a label that specializes in hard funk, soul, and afrobeat music by current artists. It was formed by musicians and producers from the now defunct 1990s funk revival pioneer label Desco Records. The label is run by Gabriel Roth (also known as Bosco Mann) and Neal Sugarman. Daptone is home to renowned artists such as Sharon Jones, The Dap-Kings, Lee Fields, Sugarman 3, Antibalas, The Mighty Imperials, and others.

Most of Daptone's seven inch singles feature a generic blue record label. However, all singles are produced in limited quantities of 1000 - 2000 copies. In some cases where titles are highly sought after and sell out quickly, a second press run with a red colored label may be done.

Mikey Post oversees Direct Sales & Distribution at Daptone and explains that their releases have been continuously available since February 2019. While records released prior to 2009 did not include barcodes initially, they still use the original 'Mother' plates for pressing new copies today. There may be slight variations in the color of labels over the years due to printing on an offset machine with stock paper.

'Miss Sharon Jones!' is a film, directed by two-time Academy Award winner, Barbara Kopple that follows the dynamic front-woman through her 2013 battle with cancer and her triumphant return to the stage around the release of 'Give The People What They Want'. The soundtrack, featuring the exclusive 'I'm Still Here', boasts a nice selection of tracks ranging from her early singles on Daptone, to tracks from the band's 2014 release - 'Give the People What They Want'. Much like the film, the soundtrack gives you an intimate, candid look into the life of a woman who refuses to be defined by the challenges she faces. The perfect accompaniment to a truly extraordinary film.

2LP - Gatefold featuring the live performance of His Eye On The Sparrow as heard in the film, not available on the CD.
