Blah blah blah, Amy Winehouse — these would be the guys who made her retro-soul thing happen a couple years back by serving as her backing band. And we shouldn’t have to sell you on Sharon at this point, either — she’d be the formidable 50-something diva who fronts this band — unless you really haven’t been paying attention, so instead you can chalk those excited jitters up to the iron-clad horn arrangements of producer Gabe Roth or the precision jangle of guitarist Binky Griptite. This is the kind of band that performs so well in their suits and sunglasses that they manage to sell you vinyl even though you don’t own a record player.

Nevertheless, a gross MP3:
