Folk Music Center in Claremont is such a jewel. I took guitar lessons from Mrs. Chase, Ben Harper's grandmother, at Memorial Park. i think she taught half the town, spawned a full-blown guitar scene in the 1970s. I love what he's done with the legacy. very nice video.

20 years goes past so fast . What a wonderful musician

I listen to his music since i was a teenager. Carried me through anger, heartbreak and now...peace...

I don't really listen to Ben Harper anymore, but his music has also carried me through all that, and more! *

Same here, him and the innocent criminals carried me from my teenage years through my phases of life. He had lost me a bit with relentless 7. But this is the album I always wanted him to make. I love it....

Yes, whenever I’m really down and out, I put on “glory and consequence” and am immediately in a good mood

This is why music is a universal language. No words needed. Beautiful!

This is one of the most beautiful pieces I've ever heard. I just want to sink into the music and play on a loop.

Ben Harper is a gift

The years go passing by but Ben Harper did nt loose his magic

Sweet peace of senses

it does not get any better then this right here...Healing music

Ben has written some of the best healing music ever. Been listening to him for about twenty years now, got all my friends listening to him back in the day too. I shall not walk alone and welcome to the cruel world are probably my favorites.

MAGNIFIQUE

Suddenly... my life feels normal again. Thanks for being you, Ben. Peace from Massachusetts!

I have been a die hard Ben Harper fan since 1992. And while not all of his songs/albums are "perfect" I cannot remember that any of his instrumental pieces were anything but amazing - ever! Thank you!!!

I could listen to this on repeat all day and that setting is hallowed ground for Ben Harper fans.

My dear friend turned me on to this magical music man in 97. Thank you Ben for being amazing!

We flew from Sacramento to New Orleans just to see him and the band for one night and then flew home the next day. I'd do it again. F'ing love this man and they way his music makes life better.

Those harmonics during the upwards slides 😍

Thank you!

Endless thrills....

Superb!

What a lovely song from one of my favorite artists ever.

This is the type of video that should not have a single thumbs down. Close your eyes and absorb

I'm From Rancho Cucamonga,so this hits close to home ,rock on Ben. Much Love to the I.E!!!

🙏merci Ben🙏

Huge artist!

Sitting in my house with good headphones and felt the impulse to applause at the end of the song.

Growing up in upstate N.Y. I used to think that everybody had grand parents that were dairy farmers. It was 1970 and we spent some time up north on my grandparents farm that summer. My aunt Connie met a guy in college named Evin Harper and before we knew it they were married. Years later they are both retired teachers. When I think of Ben Harper I wonder if there is some distant relation to my uncle Evin. Either way, Ben's music brings me back to the idea that the music is out there and we just need to be daring enough to try it.

beautiful.

Beautiful...

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar Good

David lynch blues Love it

Amazing

This brings back great memories of watching you play the slide live at the Greek theater NorCal many years ago. I wasnt aware your playing has evolved into this beautiful and eloquent sound. We are desperate to come together for concerts and hopefully we see you soon. Thank you Ben.

july 2021 in Amsterdam,...can't wait

For those of us who are stressed, tired, unsure of the future..we have Ben Harper to provide positivity and hope to defeat the demons again.

Such gorgeous music!

Had never seen him playing that guitar! Great sound+it's him playing it :).Thank you Ben Harper

Thanks for the magic, Ben.

Beautiful!!!!

May be, after all, to love is to admire in silence others, more talented, living our dreams and to let oneself be carried by the melody

mesmerizing, the highlight of my day!

Every time I got to play Claremont fest I gotta go visit his shop .... this is stunning !!

Very soothing, love the subtle melody.
