All is right in the world of R&B. D’Angelo’s back. This past weekend he returned to the US stage for the first time in 12 years. At Bonnaroo as part of Questlove’s jam session the formerly reclusive singer gave the people a trip through some funk classics. With word of his return to the recording studio to work on new material and this return to the stage soul fans are feeling like Christmas came early. And in the spirit of Christmas we have the full show for you to hear.
