Description:

Released on Daptone Records in 2012, this split 7″ pairs Charles Bradley, the late torchbearer of modern soul, with the instrumental powerhouse Menahan Street Band. “The Telephone Song” captures Bradley’s signature blend of raw emotion and vintage production — a pleading, heart-wrenching performance delivered with grit and vulnerability.

The flip side, “Tired of Fighting,” is an instrumental gem by the Menahan Street Band, brimming with cinematic horns, deep basslines, and the analog warmth that defines the Daptone aesthetic. Together, the two sides create a seamless dialogue between voice and groove — soul music that feels timeless yet alive, equally appealing to collectors, DJs, and modern producers who crave authentic analog texture.
