Product Description

CD Description

The album started out with Harper producing the Blind Boys'album and as Harper's band The Innocent Criminals joined inat the studio the project escalated into a full collaboration. Mixing Harper penned tracks with traditional songs and those penned by The Blind Boys, as well as a choice cover of Jeff Buckley's 'Satisfied Mind', the album blends Harper's roots rock with the Blind Boys' bluegrass gospel sound to create a unique fusion.

5.0 out of 5 stars Blinding light, 12 Oct 2004
By T. ORR "torr1168" (Barnet, Herts) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This album is truly inspirational on as many levels as you choose to open up to. This material springs from Gospel roots and remains grounded in Christian relgious musical heritage. Put off? Don't be: this is where R&B and Rock came from and these guys know it and feel it. This is quintessential Harper and Blind Boys. Tight music, lyrical expression, free spirit and immeasurable style. You'd have to be tone-deaf, too zealously atheistic or just plain dead not to like this album.

Can't comment on ENHANCED. I assume that's video footage, but I don't see evidence of it. Anyway, you watch music at gigs; everywhere else, music is for your ears, heart and soul, so listen.

4.0 out of 5 stars Ben finally silences the critics??, 30 Sep 2004
By Martin Slater "staggage.co.uk" (Driffield, East Yorkshire) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Ben Harper DOES gospel/blues. The result: all killers, no fillers!. Surely the critics must agree. Bens albums have been subject to some rather patchy reviews, some of which are probably worthy, however the relaxed nature of this album shines through. Ben's voice and playing suit the Blind Boys style perfectly, the result is a sheer pleasure. Bens recent albums ( aside from the MARS acoustic set ) have been a little hit and miss of late, this certainly makes up for it. At £8.99 on Amazon, it's a steel.

5.0 out of 5 stars Like lightning out of a clear sky, 13 Mar 2006
By A Customer
This album is truly magnificent. The Gospel nature of this album will undoubtedly put off some cynics, but then they only have themselves to blame for missing out.
The Blind Boys of Alabama are an absolute institution, who have yet to be recognised by the British public. I saw them live last year at the Cambridge Folk Festival, and they were the stars of the whole weekend. Their voices, although some of them are shot, add incredible depth to the playing of BHIC.

The enhanced section I believe alludes to the extra live tracks, which is the version that I own. The price is worth it for the live tracks themselves. There are live versions of take my hand, there will be a light, and the awe insipiring i shall not walk alone. It really is worth the extra few pence for these gems.
