Today's Quick Mention: The Dead Weather
have let it slip that they're planning to release a
new album later this year. Honestly, I'm OK
with that (the debut was solid), but I'm beginning
to seriously feel the need to not have a Jack
White-lead project around for a long while.
You with me?
As if they knew I needed a
little help getting through the week, Sharon Jones
And The Dap-Kings are back with a new single!
Do yourself a favor and give it good listen (or 50).
Also, be sure to make a note that the upcoming I Learned The Hard Way
LP will be
released to the masses on April 6 via the one and only Daptone
Records. You'll definitely want to pick it up. Enjoy.

Jones And The Dap-Kings - I Learned The Hard Way:
I've always thought of Sharon and Co. as having an
accessible sound, but this is actually a step up from that.
Will it net them an even bigger following? Maybe, as
it does have a more modern bent to it and it's not as if the
love that Amy Winehouse garnered has actually been followed
up by anything. Either way though, it's awesome to see
this force still racing along and being fantastic.
