Well today’s song needs no introductions or explanations and I dare say I needn’t point out the obvious in stating just what a divine track this is, but oh my this is a beauty. Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings couldn’t make a bad song if they tried and the pleasure this music brings will be Sharon Jones legacy for many, many years to come.
Just Give Me Your Time comes from Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings final album, Soul of a Woman which was released last November on Daptone Records…I’ll gladly give you my time Sharon! Listen and enjoy above…
There are certain points that I can’t help but tear up still when I think of Sharon Jones. The only time I got to see her live was at the Grand Opening of KEXP Seattle’s new home… she had stayed in Seattle after the end of her tour for a couple days just to do the show for donors and listeners that she knew had supported for years. I found out later that she had been really struggling, but you never would have known from her performance on stage.

Ahh wow, she was a brave, strong and powerful lady and I bet it was magic to see her live! A rare opportunity that you can cherish…I saw her in the UK many moons ago and it was awesome, I shall cherish that experience too 😊
