The James Hunter Six, Nick of Time, 2020 on Daptone

James Hunter puts out records under his own name and as leader of the James Hunter Six, as well as his first band Howlin’ Wilf and the Vee-Jays.

Consistent with being on Daptone, it’s a roots/revival R&B Soul sound – his breakout People Gonna Talk came out in 2006 on Rounder. I got a chance to see him in a small venue – the Firehouse Center for the Arts in Newburyport MA – the summer of 2007.

My copy of this record (via private sale) is a mono pressing on dark blue Daptone labels.

I just noticed that James Hunter has a new album out. This is one of the videos from it:

The James Hunter Six: Gun Shy (2026)

I've been a Hunter fan since "People Gonna Talk" in 2006, and this is still pretty much in the same style, which - I would guess - is probably not a bad thing.

Several of his previous albums were issued by Daptone, but this is on a new label, Easy Eye Sound. The full album ("Off the Fence") can be found on all of the usual streaming services:

Thirteen to Centaurus (Peter Potter, 1965)

A ship travels the universe, on its way to Centaurus. On board is a group of people, fourteen in total, one of them called Abel, a teenage boy. His recurring nightmare about a glowing disc prompts to sessions with the on-board psychologist, and the only one with knowledge of Earth, Dr Francis.
