Sharon Jones And The Dapkings
How Do I Let A Good Man Down 7"

This Sharon Jones release offers two more album cuts from the highly received Naturally LP. Good instrumental movement on "How Do I," with a soul sound that could easily be a mid-60s JB production. It's got that polished, but not slick, orchestrated but still loose feeling that makes those JB sides so damn tight. And Ms Jones is clear as ever on the vocals. Well done. B-side is the fast paced "My Man Is A Mean Man" (she's got a lot of dudes).
