After Ben Harper and Charlie Musselwhite won the Best Blues Album Grammy for 2013's wonderful Get Up!, fans knew it was only a question of time before they worked together again. In the interim, the only outing from Harper was another duo offering, the gorgeous folk-inflected Childhood Home with his mother Ellen Harper. Musselwhite, a serious road dog, issued the raw, scorching Juke Joint Chapel on Henrietta the year before and was also nominated for a Grammy. Get Up! was followed by the wild and wooly live set I Ain't Lyin' in 2015. Ultimately, No Mercy in This Land is solid if not (quite) as strong as Get Up! That said, it is more diverse, immediate, and instinctive, making it a worthy listen, and provides further evidence that this pair should work together more often.
Ben Harper, Charlie Musselwhite Detail New Album ‘No Mercy In This Land’. Pair plot North American tour in support of follow-up to 2013 Grammy-winning LP ‘Get Up!’ By. Jon Blistein. Charlie Musselwhite is that very rare and hallowed place where blues past, present and future collide, Harper said of the harmonica player. He transforms notes into emotions that feel both hauntingly familiar and brand new, as if hearing them for the first time every time.
