Ben Harper And The Blind Boys Of Alabama There Will Be Light on Limited Edition 180g Vinyl LP! 

There Will Be Light began as a series of rehearsals for Ben Harper's collaboration on a Blind Boys of Alabama record. Recorded in two sessions, the two acts ended up with an album of collaborative material for joint releases. These set of tunes, with seven Ben Harper originals written specifically for the sessions, the rest traditional gospel tunes and covers, showcase Harper and the Innocent Criminals alongside the Blind Boys of Alabama. The album kicks off with Harper's "Take My Hand," a funky gospel tune underscored by a call and response from the Blind Boys. "Wicked Man" is a Southern soul tune that has a Muscle Shoals groove and a beautiful vocal weave on the refrain. "Church House Steps" is pure gospel groove with a Hammond B3 and a duet between the Blind Boys' layered harmonies and Harper on the verses. Also featured is a smokin' cover of the Bob Dylan/Danny O'Keefe tune, "Well, Well, Well," with Delta blues bottleneck shimmering throughout. There Will Be Light is a fine and unique musical collaboration in the truest sense of the word.
