专辑介绍：

第一次听到Sharon Jones是在电影《暗物质(Dark Matter)(2007)》里，片尾曲This Land Is Your Land非常好听！便开始关注她。这次发布她的2005年专辑Naturally收录这首片尾曲。喜欢Soul / Funk的朋友，不要错过这张专辑！绝对值得一听！

如果把当今爵士乐视作空气，全不当回事儿，那你就该后悔自己为何只知流行摇滚而不识爵士之美。Sharon Jones，她和James Brown一样，出生于美国佐治亚州奥古斯塔市。曾在教堂唱诗班待过，十几岁时随家人搬迁至纽约布鲁克林区，在那里她受到20世纪70年代的Disco和Funk风格的影响。20多岁以后开始为多位爵士乐、灵魂乐、Disco艺人作和声。到了80年代，Sharon Jones的声线注定不被当时的流行大众所认可，她便重回教堂演唱，同时她也任职纽约Rykers岛上监狱的一名教管人员。

直到1996年，Desco唱片公司找到Sharon Jones，签约并于90年代末期录制发行了几张单曲专辑。2002年，在与Daptone唱片公司签约后，Sharon Jones和the Dap-Kings联合录制了首张个人全专辑，之后在各地进行巡回演出。2005年发行专辑”Naturally”。

In a desert of computerized over-produced faux-R&B, Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings' "Naturally" is a cool glass of water for anyone thirsty for Real Soul and Funk Music. On this, their sophomore release on Brooklyn's own independent Daptone Records, they have succeeded in transcending the boundaries of time to bring us face to face with the naked body of vintage Soul.

From the first track, a funk-infused shuffle, the Dap-Kings carve a deep and heavy groove which only gets deeper and heavier as the needle cuts further into the flesh of the album. Through ten solid tracks, �Naturally� explores the many moods and tempos of a group that is quickly earning a reputation as one of the hottest live acts across the nation, stretching their versatility to map out the full panorama of the idiom in which they so effortlessly reside. They are able to bring us back to 1970 not with the usual bell-bottomed conventions and wah-wah clich�©s employed by so many retro-funk wannabe�s, but by reaching back to the original source of all that good music: sincerity, integrity, melody, and an unwavering loyalty to rhythm.

In arrangements punctuated by bold horns and tastefully accented with piano, vibes, and strings, the Dap-Kings road-tight rhythm section expertly frames the skeleton of a classic Soul album, breathing life into a body of songs penned exclusively for Sharon Jones� unique voice. In turn, she masterfully and instinctively reaches beyond the basic melodies into her gospel-soaked roots to pour every drop of herself into each note that passes her lips, elevating the music from craft to art. With every moan she reminds us that before Whitney, Mariah, and Jay-Z, there was Tina, Aretha, and J.B.

Whether it�s the hard-hitting funk of �My Man Is A Mean Man� you crave or the transporting balladeering of �Stranded� or �All Over Again�, Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings� �Naturally� is destined to occupy a permanent space in your heart and in your record collection.
