DAPTONE 7" SINGLES COLLECTION VOL. 2



You’ve been licking ‘round the bottom of the Soul bowl lately, scrounging for every bit and morsel you can find. And now this! Our second volume of Daptone cuts that have never been digitized before. All the 45 only jams that your hipper friends with record players have been so smarmy about for so long. I’m sure you would have bought them on vinyl if your apartment wasn’t so small, right? Or maybe you already did, but want these handy digital ones so you can listen to them on your telephone when you’re not near enough to your dear old turntable. Either way, I’m sure you’ll enjoy Volume two of Daptone’s 7” Singles Collection.

And don’t forget, singles are for couples too!


1. The Matador - The Mighty Imperials
2. Now That I'm Gone - Charles Bradley & The Bullets
3. Can't Stop Thinking About You - Charles Bradley
4. Could Have Been - Lee Fields
5. You Don't Know What You Mean (To a Lover Like Me) - Lee Fields and Sugarman & Co.
6. How Long Do I Have To Wait For You (Instr.) - Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings
7. This Love Ain't Big Enough for the Two of Us - Charles Bradley & The Bullets
8. (She's Got) Twilight Eyes - Charles Bradley & The Bullets
9. I Just Dropped In to See What Condition My Condition Is In - Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings
10. Stand Up - Lee Fields and Sugarman & Co.

Are you in the mood for a fantastic record?

Well take off everything you're wearing and try this on. As the title track of Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings' latest smash long-player, the stirring Rhythm & Blues of "100 Days, 100 Nights" will be familiar to you. However, in order to satiate the appetites of 7" DJ's and jukebox owners worldwide who have been clammering to have their favorite song on their favorite format, we've cut it as a single. But that's not all. Flip your pancakes for a HOT NEW EXCLUSIVE. Settling In is a bluesy mid-tempo groover from the "100 Days, 100 Nights" recording sessions rearing its soulful head for the first time in ANY format.

Remember: There's nothing better than a good time.
