To mark its 20th anniversary, Daptone Records has announced Daptone Super Soul Revue Live at the Apollo, a new compilation of performances at the world-famous Harlem theater arriving on October 1st.
The 3xLP curates from Daptone Super Soul Revue, a 2014 run of three sold-out nights at the Apollo Theater. It features performances by Charles Bradley, Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings, Naomi Shelton, Antibalas, The Budos Band, Menahan Street Band, Sugarman 3, Saun & Starr, and the Como Mamas.
Included in the physical album is a 3xLP gatefold with a 48-page booklet featuring both on-stage and backstage photos by Isaac Sterling and Jacob Blickenstaff.
As a preview of Live at the Apollo, Daptone has shared a pair of videos containing footage from the performances. In the clips, Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings take on “Get Up and Get Out,” while Charles Bradley plays through “Let Love Stand a Chance.” Watch the performances below.
Pre-orders for Daptone Super Soul Revue Live At the Apollo are ongoing. In October 2020, Dapton released a compilation of previously unheard cover songs by Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings titled Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Rendition Was In).
