Mykesbass Posted November 19, 2016 Posted November 19, 2016 Another sad 2016 loss, and another victim of pancreatic cancer. Fabulous artist, and a great shame she didn't quit e make the breakthrough she deserved. [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iRENaUQc5No"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iRENaUQc5No[/url] Quote
solo4652 Posted November 19, 2016 Posted November 19, 2016 Bugger. Sharon Jones had battled cancer for quite a while. I thought she'd beaten it, but no. I first came across her on Live at Daryl's House. Check this out for energy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AK0LEpyM0oQ&list=RDAK0LEpyM0oQ#t=16 Quote
chris_b Posted November 19, 2016 Posted November 19, 2016 Sad news. The Dap-Kings were a great band. Quote
timmo Posted November 19, 2016 Posted November 19, 2016 i first heard Money via Sleeping Dogs video game about 4 years or so ago. i started listening to her music from that point. As for not making it, I think she would have been a reasonably big star if she was around in the late 60' s early 70's. she had the perfect sound for that soul era. Quote
yorks5stringer Posted November 19, 2016 Posted November 19, 2016 (edited) When I read the email from Daptone and it said she 'had heroically passed' I thought it meant she had beaten it.. Saddened by this and all the others recently. Saw her at The Sage in Gateshead and in Manchester too. Edited November 19, 2016 by yorks5stringer Quote
Roland Rock Posted November 19, 2016 Posted November 19, 2016 Really sad. I saw her live a couple of times and she exuded energy and personality. RIP Quote
