Ben Harper And The Blind Boys Of Alabama

Ben Harper and The Blind Boys of Alabama is the pairing of American singer-songwriter Ben Harper and American gospel group The Blind Boys of Alabama. Ben Harper stated "I have now spent a considerable amount of time with all of them, and I know for certain, they see what we won't, they see what we don't, and they see what we can't. It is an honor to be in their presence and to know they are my friends. I thank them for the singing lessons, and more importantly I thank them for teaching me that blessings are a privilege, not a birthright, and are never to be taken for granted. What started out as me working with them on a couple of tracks, blossomed and bloomed into an entire record in eight days. It all happened so fast. If it weren't for the recordings that prove that this magic actually happened, I would not be entirely aware of what went on. " Read more on Last.fm.
