Welcome !      Ben Harper Nobody's Fault (Live) Album: n/a Genres: Rock It’s not just money, romance, and prison that can give you the blues. The prospect of eternal damnation works pretty well too, as you can hear in this vibrant cover of a gospel-blues classic.

Harper introduces his version -- recorded live at an Australian blues festival -- with a rambling comment about the blues’ all-pervasive influence, but his performance is straightforward and heartfelt. Harper can’t help but shine when it boils down to one man, his guitar, and that rarest of rock themes, a deeply ingrained sense of personal responsibility.       Jackie McCarthy     Jackie McCarthy is the former music editor of Seattle Weekly, and writes about music and other topics for CMJ New Music Monthly, Seattle Weekly, and Resonance on paper, and CDNow and Wall of Sound on the web.   Click here for rules!          Average Rating: One Star Two Stars Three Stars Four Stars Five Stars                                   Enter a review to win an iShriek MP3 Player!   sssssuuuuuuuuppppppppppppppppeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrr !!!!!!! Steven (sigh) BEN! I know far too many girls that would be willing to give up an article of clothing for this man, and baby....I know why- just listen to this man sing. Kristin This song feels very laid back and somber, but you can feel the heart in Harper's eerie vocals. Not the best live material I've heard from him, but worth a listen. keri ker
