One half of this song is the renowned Sharon Jones of Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings. The album comes out in May.
The guys at Prefix Mag have an assessment:
Booker T. Jones' second career (or third) as Anti-signed soul-indie collaborator continues with his new album, The Road from Memphis, an album that features Jim James, Lou Reed, the Roots, Matt Berninger from the National and Sharon Jones. Those latter two feature in "Representing Memphis," the new single from the project. Berninger and Jones duet here, with Jones dominating, obviously. It's not like Berninger is going to out-soul anyone, but his voice here is a good complement to Jones. Listen at Pitchfork.
