Outstanding double disc collection of Daptone rarities! Daptone Gold II compiles 45 only fan favorites all hand picked by the Dap staff, musicians, and fans. The core roster and then some are all represented, very well mind you. Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings, Charles Bradley, Naomi Shelton, Menahan Street Band, Sugarman 3 & so many others. Exclusive to the compilation is a brand new heater from Naomi Shelton & The Gospel Queens and of course The Dap Kings with a fire starter titled ‘Thunderclap’. Pressed on heavyweight 2 x LP and housed in a silver foil gatefold sleeve and comes with a poster, liner notes from WFMU’s Mr Fine Wine and Daptone iron-on. This is for the hardcore, but any fan should be hardcore cuz it is ALL GOOD.
