📰 News we're reading
1. James Hunter reflects on Van Morrison, Daptone and 40 years of soul ahead of Cohoes show (timesunion.com) — James Hunter Six brings its vintage soul sound to Cohoes Music Hall on Thursday, November 12, with McKinley James opening the 7:30 p.m. show. Hunter says the band's latest album, 'Off the Fence,' was largely recorded live in the studio, making its songs a natural fit for concerts. Tickets cost $33–$53. 
2. Duty Calls: Retired Army general earns Veteran of Year Award (timesunion.com) — Cohoes veteran Allen Aubin, a Purple Heart recipient who later spent 32 years with the city's fire department, will be honored by Albany County on November 18. He is one of three combat veterans being recognized at a 10 a.m. ceremony near the former 110 Grill on Crossgates Mall's first floor in Guilderland.
3. Schenectady man charged with third DWAI-Drugs (dailygazette.com) — A Cohoes woman faces a drug-impaired driving charge after a property-damage crash at Walmart on Loudon Road on Nov. 5, according to Colonie police.

4. State Sen. Jake Ashby now trails Democratic challenger (timesunion.com) — The race to represent Cohoes in the state Senate remains unsettled after Democrat Devin Lander moved 141 votes ahead of Republican incumbent Jake Ashby at noon Tuesday.
