Daptone Records has released two more tracks from its upcoming live compilation The Daptone Super Soul Revue Live at the Apollo: Naomi Shelton and the Gospel Queens’ “Thank You Lord” and Saun and Starr’s “Confess It.”
“Thank You Lord” finds Shelton — who died earlier this year at the age of 78 — in fine form as she vamps and praises over a slick soul shuffle. Saun and Starr’s “Confess It,” meanwhile, feels like a smoldering Saturday night counterpart to Shelton’s Sunday morning worship, the two singers conjuring a burning secret with their dueling vocals.

Late Daptone greats Sharon Jones and Charles Bradley anchor a new all-star rendition of “Hey Brother (Do Unto Others),” the A-side to the label’s upcoming 100th 45rpm record, out June 28th.
Along with featuring posthumous performances from Jones and Bradley — who died in 2016 and 2017, respectively — the cover also honors two other late Daptone artists, Dan Klein of the Frightnrs (who wrote “Hey Brother”) and organist/bandleader Cliff Driver. “Hey Brother” originally appeared on the Frightnrs 2016 album, Nothing More to Say, which was released after Klein’s death from Als.
