These guys have been going strong since 1939, they deserve some respect.

They did a concert at the Oregon Zoo when I worked there, pretty impressive. They did a song with Pink Martini, if I remember correctly.

besides the time when ben harper joined them, i can't get into these guys. i don't understand it for the life of me, i'm a huge soul music fan & there's no doubting the talent of these guys, but these guys & me just don't "click", not yet anyway. maybe i'm a weirdo

Then Ben Harper and the Blind Boys CD is epic. They are definitely a talented group, though I'm not sure you'll get many listeners from AP.net

Haha, just might not be your thing. Have you listened to Higher Ground? It is an incredible album, Ben Harper sings on a few of the songs on that album but not much.

the stuff they did with Ben Harper is sick, but i've never really listened to them otherwise.
