DAMN : !! I have watched this video 5 or 6 times and loved it. I put it down, then came back years later and watched again and was completely entharalled! ..If she isn't directly channelling James Brown then I don't know who is... please don't tell me I'm wrong as I am a HUGE fan boy and I haven't been this excited since I first heard the REAL JB on XERB radio broadcasting from SO. of the Mexican border with Wolfman Jack in the 60's!!!!!

She gets my blood flowing ...it's primal in the best sense!

Not a huge Sharon Jones fan, but I'm pretty sure this is better suited to be in 'Off Topic'. I don't think she has a signature Fender model available yet.

She and her boys tore it up at Festival 8 a couple of years ago.

"Miscellaneous [BG] Music-related discussion, not specific to the bass or any other forum" - sounds like the OP is in the right place. Should have included a link, though...

Sharon Jones is great, been a fan for years and seen her multiple times, but I don't see what it has to do with James Brown. Their styles are nowhere close to similar.

I think you should know that this thread has been moved from the "Bass Guitars>Basses" forum, where it was originally posted .

Should find its target audience here though .

Love Sharon Jones. Hey she is a semi local product. (Dayton, Ohio) Check out Janelle Monae if you want to see someone channeling James Brown. Here is the link. Good stuff.

I saw two of her shows in Dallas (first at the Granada, then at the Palladium/South Side Music Hall). I can understand the reference to JB, although I think it would be better to describe their similarities as a performance liking, as opposed to singing style or tone.

Her band kills it. Plain and simple, arguably some of the best musicians you'll ever see perform (I believe the bass player is the ring leader, although the guitarist does a bit of emcee duties).

I would recommend anyone go see her live if you ever get a chance.
