The Story
2004 soul/funk jam “How Long Do I Have to Wait For You” appeared on Sharon Jones And The Dap-Kings’ second album, Naturally. The infectious tune is noted for the cascade of horns and guitar that accompany Jones’ charismatic vocals, and for this 45, Ticklah switches up the sounds and reinterprets the song with wicked reggae sensibilities. The Brooklyn artist and founding member of Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings, Antibalas, Afrobeat Orchestra, and the Easy Star All-Stars also includes a sick dub version on the flip, where he unleashes delay, reverb and echo magic over the remix.
