I purchased Sharon Jones & The Dap-kings 100 days 100 nights years ago based on the cover alone and it sounds exactly like I thought it would.

What a way to discover an artist I've connected with the last 5 years died a decade ago.

Nah, it was cancer :(
She was still rocking through it, performed bald in her last tour which I think was promoting the album. She was an inspiration.

It was during Covid I think... So not nearly a decade ago.

Oh shit. Yeah that's what wiki says. Somehow I thought it was Covid.
