Ben Harper - A Concert Tomorrow Night and A Contest To Win Some Free Stuff

I have been so crazy over the last few weeks I almost forgot about my tickets to see Ben Harper's new project, Relentless 7, this week at Webster Hall.  I have been a long time fan, dating back to seeing him as an opening act in June of 1996. 

R7 debuted late last year with a handful of intimate shows.  The band's new album White Lies For Dark Times hits stores on Tue (5/5)...making the Webster Hall show the unofficial record release party.  Sweet.  BTW, you can preview the entire album here.  Doubly sweet.

Contest:  I have two (2) BHR7 album prize packs to give away consisting of the deluxe CD/DVD edition of the album and a poster of the cover art.  Email me here, two winners will be selected at random.

If I Were In Chicago On May 1, I Would DEFINITELY Go See This

T.J.I.F. - Massive "Could You Be Loved" All Star Live Video

Thank Jah!!! It's Friday.  Haven't done one of these in a long time.  My apologies.  This video is truly mind blowing.  During a Damien Marley show last year at the House of Blues in LA, Stevie Wonder surprises the Marley brothers on an encore performance of Bob's "Could You Be Loved."   Mos Def and Ben Harper also join in on the fun.  Peep this:
