Daptone

Elmer "Lee" Fields is an American soul artist born in 1951 in North Carolina.

Daptone is a label that specializes in hard funk, soul, and afrobeat music by current artists. It was formed by musicians and producers from the now defunct 1990s funk revival pioneer label Desco Records. The label is run by Gabriel Roth (also known as Bosco Mann) and Neal Sugarman. Daptone is home to renowned artists such as Sharon Jones, The Dap-Kings, Lee Fields, Sugarman 3, Antibalas, The Mighty Imperials, and others.

Most of Daptone's seven inch singles feature a generic blue record label. However, all singles are produced in limited quantities of 1000 - 2000 copies. In some cases where titles are highly sought after and sell out quickly, a second press run with a red colored label may be done.

Mikey Post oversees Direct Sales & Distribution at Daptone and explains that their releases have been continuously available since February 2019. While records released prior to 2009 did not include barcodes initially, they still use the original 'Mother' plates for pressing new copies today. There may be slight variations in the color of labels over the years due to printing on an offset machine with stock paper.

Back In Stock

Lee Fields returns with his
brand new single “Waiting on the Sidelines”. Written by Thomas 'TNT' Brenneck
(MSB, Charles Bradley, Diamond West Records) this beat-ballad grooves low and
slow, giving Lee ample room to unleash a heart-breakingly soulful display of vocal
acrobatics – an absolute must-have for fans of the Penrose sound.


On the flip you'll find “You Can Count On Me”, an in demand, upbeat moover
previously only available on a limited edition 12” EP. Now bow to the king!
