Live From The House Of Soul - Daptone DVD Series

Live From The House Of Soul - Daptone DVD Series magazine cover

Out today in the Usa via Amazon, but Amazon Uk says not out til 14 March Uk (but can preorder...huh?) .
Not sure about other nations, but guess you may be able to buy it direct from a variety of global sources  

The first installment of Daptone Records' new video series, Live From The House Of Soul. Directed by Poull Brien and shot in the backyard of Daptone's House of Soul in Bushwick, Brooklyn, features Charles Bradley at his best with the Menahan Street Band.

Charles Bradley's voice has evolved from a lifetime of paying dues, having nomadically labored for decades at various day jobs from Maine to Alaska - singing and performing in his spare time - before re-settling in his hometown Brooklyn and eventually finding a musical home at Dunham.

In his distinctively rough-hewn timbre one hears the unmistakable voice of experience - each note and gruff inflection a reflection of his extended, sometimes rocky, personal path. It's only fitting that producer, Brenneck (also a member of The Dap-Kings and The Budos Band), would recognize in Bradley a kindred musical spirit - a singer whose performances exude both raw power and poignant beauty.

Thanks for posting. Looks good. Love everything on Daptone records, such a great soulful sound and quality in each of the recordings, really hope they keep it all rolling there. This is quite interesting from 4 or 5 years back, a look at the history of Daptone Records...
