2010 release, the fourth album from the Modern Soul heroine and her ace band. The record marks a bold step forward for a band who almost single-handedly stewarded today's return of Soul music to it's more traditional sound. I Learned the Hard Way was produced by Bosco Mann and recorded on an Ampex eight-track tape machine by Gabriel Roth in Daptone Records' House of Soul studios, the record drips with a warmth and spontaneity rarely found since the golden days of Muscle Shoals and Stax. Sharon's raw power, rhythmic swagger, moaning soulfulness, and melodic command set her firmly alongside Tina Turner, James Brown, Mavis Staples, and Aretha as a fixture in the canon of Soul music.
"I Learned The Hard Way" is a soulful masterpiece by Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings, released on CD by Daptone Records. This album captures the raw energy and authentic sound of classic soul, blending powerful vocals with tight rhythms and vibrant horn sections. Featuring standout tracks like "The Game Gets Old" and the title track "I Learned The Hard Way," this record showcases the band's ability to channel vintage influences while delivering fresh, heartfelt performances. Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings have been at the forefront of the modern soul revival, earning critical acclaim for their electrifying live shows and timeless recordings. Their previous albums such as "100 Days, 100 Nights" have solidified their reputation as torchbearers of genuine soul music. Daptone Records is renowned for its dedication to analog recording techniques and fostering artists who honor traditional R&B sounds.
