Manic Depression by Ben Harper

[Mark M]

Ben just ROCKS.

Here's an older one but it don't matter when it's from because it's all good. His lap steel technique and tone are just marvelous and his band is as well. And I just love his rendidtions of Hendrix tunes as you'll see on this one. He definitely "Harperizes" any cover that he decides to do which makes them fun to listen to and watch.

Enjoy!

Man!!! That's a great version of one of my favorite Hendrix tunes.
....and what a work-out for that drummer too!

We haven't seen much from you on here lately....or Joe...or Jer...or Jim
What gives?

[Seymouro]

Yes, I am with Paul on the commentary. Drummer is a bad mofo, and so is Mr. Harper...

Great selection as well...Manic Depression is a frustrating mess!

In my case I've been really busy both at work and home but I think things will be slowing down a bit so I should have more time to do this sort of thing. Luckily Dave, AKA: Seymouro, has been here holding down the fort  

In the case of this BH vid.... I was going through old email and found this link that I must have sent to myself with the intention of posting here but got overlooked. It's was sitting there for over a year so I'm glad I found it.

EXCELLENT version!  I'll have lots of time for this, now that I'm laid off again...

NICE!  Ben's rockin' the house!  

Sorry for absence.  I'll try to get on more.  Work and life has been pretty nuts.  But God is good and all is well here in the south.  

How y'all ben?  (been)  :-D
