Naturally was the second collaboration between the great soul singer Sharon Jones and the Daptone Records funky house band, The Dap-Kings. This creative partnership meshed perfectly straight from the start, and the group worked together on seven albums before Jones untimely death in 2016 at the age of 60. Bandbox is honored to keep Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings vibrant sound pumping out of turntables across the world with this exclusive vinyl pressing of Naturally on a stylish clear yellow variant. The songs on this record are an instant party starter. There is simply no way to stay still while these pulsating, soul-filled tracks are playing. Jones rich, golden voice delivers the emotional message of the songs, while the Dap-Kings horn-laden rhythms push the music ever forward. Jones longtime friend and collaborator Lee Fields joins her on a stunning run through of one of the album clear standouts, "Stranded In Your Love." Jones also gives a modern update on the Woody Guthrie folk classic, "This Land Is Your Land," refreshed with a smooth, R&B sound. Naturally is a dynamic album filled with soulful songs that somehow have both a classic sound as well as a contemporary swing to them. And much of that is due to the glorious voice of Sharon Jones. Bandbox exclusive vinyl version of Naturally also comes with a 16-page zine dedicated to Sharon Jones, featuring insightful essays about her musical career, the Dap-Kings influence on modern music, as well as gorgeous photographs of Jones and her talented band performing on stage.
