Rolling Stone
“Hot-blooded…a fortuitous jam session with moments of gospel
elevation.” 
New
York Times
They really do draw out the best in each other: Harper has
never sounded so powerful, Musselwhite so free to showcase his full range of
emotion while sounding consistently raw.” 
San Francisco
Chronicle
“Harper
and the harmonicist make a righteously blues twosome, digging into roots
originals that feel gritted up from decades of dirt and dust.”
People
“[Musselwhite’s] tender harmonica beautifully counterpoints
Harper’s bruised, emotionally charged vocals.”  4 STARS

beguiling mix of acoustic and electric blues, with harmonica legend Musselwhite
weaving in and out like a roadhouse virtuoso.”- Boston
Globe

blues pairing this good hasn’t occurred since Johnny Winter made Muddy Waters
‘hard again’ back in the ’70s.” 
– Elmore
“It’s a marriage made in blues
heaven.”
