I saw Charlie Musselwhite at the Rudyard Kipling in Louisville KY in the early to mid 1990s. I had never heard of him and there were maybe 150 people there. I did not know that such things were possible on a harmonica or that the blues could feel like this. I knew that I was in the presence of a giant. Thanks be to God for the incredible spirit, Hayden Smith, my father-in-law, who took me to see him. Ben Harper, I admire you for reaching out to one of the greats to help him have another day in the sun.
I met Mr.'s Harper & Musselwhite backstage at an awards show a few years ago (I was volunteering) and introduced myself, shook their hands and congratulated them on their win. Ben couldn't have been more gracious, he really seemed like a great guy. I told Charlie, "You're a living legend, I can't even believe I'm talking to you." He smiled and said, "You've got great taste, Danny!" LOL
Anyone who has seen these guys live knows what love of life is, know what true music is, and know how to appreciate musicians who gives their heart to make us all happy. I am so grateful to people like this.
Thanks Ben Harper for Keeping the Blues Alive ! Thank you respected Master of Blues Harp ... the one and only American Treasure Mr.Charlie Musselwhite. So cool that hundreds of thousands of youngsters (sure to be millions on this riff) are hearing this Fine American Born Music.
This IS THE SOUND! Engineering mixed with the right players and their great instruments and amps !! This is the sound...ANALOG , TUBES, Reverb , Pushed to the brink !
I just love this music it is soooo clean and honest and true to itself. Just like the musicians singing and accompanying it. Dynamic music from two innovators!
Wow, the groove and guitar are fantastic. Harpplayers should have more credits.....have bought a couple of Ben Harper albums, Love them all, but this here is holy
Met him last night and asked him to write a book, his history and knowledge of so many things is countless. Just the musical facts of songs and the artists he knows is incredible. I hope someone can get with him.
Charlie is fantastic, he just flows with that harp. Seen musslewhite in South Lake Tahoe Ca, 1970...then again. 1998 Santa Rosa Ca. He was always a Master and always be... age has no bounds for Charlie
Was fortunate to meet Charlie in Burlington, Vt years ago And then in South Royalton in that same beautiful state. Having loved his music from Stand Back days, I want to say what a gentleman! So glad he is faithful to his love of blues.
I have always Loved Ben Harper, and Charlie Musselwhite, but I never knew this shit existed, I am constantly amazed at the internets ability to find great shit for me.
Yes...'TH-cam' is an idiot savant. Lol, I do promo & I'll search & also try every arrangement of an artists name or band, track,album etc. & once in a while it will bring up a song that the artist doesn't remember they recorded or had no idea had been uploaded to the internet (TH-cam)....but sometimes it shows me the same 'duds' over & over even though I spend a fair amount of time answering it's survey questions after I click 'not interested.'
This is whats called "real blues"&its only heard from someone thats got "a few miles" on them!Now this gentleman Mr Harper is&will b a power to b reckoned with!Thank u,Mr Harper,keepin the desire to make "real music" alive!
Wow , you come a long way Ben Harper. I don't know if you remember me but we went to school together back at Claremont High School. I was all into Poplocking & Breaking back then. As a matter of fact I was in the 2 movies BODY ROCK & BREAKIN 2. I had no idea back then you were into blues? I was. I've been a life long drummer also. I do remember you being into music tho, and your family's music shop in downtown Claremont. God bless you brother. You look and sound great.
The Great Charlie & The Amazing Ben ...After 40 Years ...they are some of the ones they love what they do ...not doing it for money .... I was in, now Out, still not gone... Peace and Love With Bombs and Missiles ✌️
Ben Harper is my favorite artist and he can write with and play along side with anyone. He has made album's with so many greats like Charlie Musselwhite. Love it!!! I see 286 viewers don't know what real music and talent is!!
Ich habe Charlie in unserer Kleinstadt live gesehen. Dabei noch einige Blues Harp Spieler die dieses kleine Instrument Götlich beherrschen. Ich versuche mich selber an der Harp.... Und Ben Harper einfach genial. Danke dafür, Musik, Blues, Weltsprache. 😎👍

I seen Charlie at yellow pine in Idaho he was absolutely fabulous I would see him again in a second enjoyed it totally he's awesome
This makes my heart swell....damn, I love this. The Blues will NEVER die....NEVER.
We seen them in Nashville 2018!! Awesome!!
Why would blues ever die? it's like saying music will never die man..
Because other genres and styles have been, essentially, discarded... But blues never will be

My husband used to interview a lot of blue musicians and says Charlie was one of the most interesting and inspiring people he interviewed.
Met him last night and asked him to write a book, his history and knowledge of so many things is countless.
Just the musical facts of songs and the artists he knows is incredible. I hope someone can get with him.
As a harmonica player... I've learned so much from this man. His style, phrasing, tone, breath control... An absolute genius. It makes me weep, even
Met Up with Charlie almost 4 years ago....one of the koolest cats around.
His Harp playing is chillin.love the cat.
That's how ya do it.

the foundation of blues is passion and soul. Things that will never get old or "out dated"...

Damn, Ben Harper is a great bluesman! I haven't heard much from him lately.
