Ben Harper & the Innocent Criminals - Lifeline
Reviewed by jonathan
The great thing about Ben Harper is how he can transition from one musical style to another. Sometimes he can sound like Hendrix, sometimes like Otis Redding, other times like Bob Marley or Richie Havens. Lifeline, his latest, is a rich amalgam of funk and blues, country and gospel. The Innocent Criminals behind him play with a deep sincerity and the spectacularly written songs are more of the Ben Harper we've grown accustomed to. [www.benharper.net]
