Night songs proves to be one solid jam after another, all the way from the title track and all the way Back..." [+] Reply

"I don't understand how Ben Harper is consistently overlooked on BEA. He's creative, diverse, funky, soulful, and ties into roots and culture. He should get a lot more recognition, and we could start with this album - it's one of his best." Reply
