Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings "People Don't Get What They Deserve" on Kimmel 3/24/2014:
In this broadcast, Sharon Jones was charismatic as ever, alternating between singing softly with ease and really belting out the emphatic parts of each song. Beginning with "Making Up and Breaking Up," the sexier, more laid-back of the two, the band kicked it into high gear for the pissed-off rave-up of "People Don't Get What They Deserve," a song that makes it clear that Sharon Jones' bad side is not a place you'd ever want to be. At 57, Jones is showing the youngsters that retro soul is still as vital as ever.
