Ben Harper 1 Ben Harper Ben Harper 1 Ben Harper Ben Harper Ben Harper dal vivo Nazionalità Stati Uniti Genere Adult alternative rock Musica d'autore [1] Blues rock Folk rock Reggae Funk rock Periodo di attività 1992 – in attività Strumento chitarra, voce Gruppi Ben Harper and the Innocent Criminals, Rentless 7 Album pubblicati 17 Studio 13 Live 4 Raccolte 1 [2] Sito web www.benharper.com Benjamin Chase, "Ben", Harper (Claremont, 28 ottobre 1969) è un cantante e chitarrista statunitense. Biografia Benjamin Chase Harper è nato a Claremont, nell'Inland Empire in California. Il padre Leonard era di discendenza afroamericana e Cherokee, la madre Ellen Chase-Vendries ebrea. La nonna materna era russa, ebrea e immigrata dalla Lituania. I genitori divorziarono quando aveva cinque anni e lui è cresciuto con la famiglia materna. Harper ha due fratelli, Joel e Peter.[3] Comincia a suonare la chitarra da ragazzo, nel retro del Folk Music Center and Museum, il negozio di strumenti musicali dei suoi nonni materni, specializzandosi nell'uso della lap steel guitar, una chitarra speciale da suonare con l'apposito slide, imitando lo stile di Robert Johnson. La sua chitarra è un pezzo molto raro e risale addirittura al 1920. Nel 1992 registrò l'album Pleasure and Pain, con l'amico chitarrista folk Tom Freund. Dopo questa edizione limitata Ben Harper ricevette una proposta di contratto dalla Virgin Records, che pubblicò nel 1994 il suo album di debutto Welcome to the Cruel World, che ottenne un buon riconoscimento dalla critica. Nell'album successivo, Fight for Your Mind (1995), più maturo e ricco di impegno politico, Ben Harper presentava The Innocent Criminals, Juan Nelson (basso), Leon Mobley (percussioni) e Oliver Charles (batteria). Il 28 giugno 1995 si esibisce per la prima volta in Italia all'Arezzo Wave. Ben Harper 2 The Will to Live (1997) allargò la sua base di fan agli ascoltatori di college radio e delle radio alternative, e presentava una formazione diversa con David Leach (percussioni) e Dean Butterworth (batteria). Nel corso dei successivi due anni Ben Harper & the Innocent Criminals furono impegnati in un'incessante attività dal vivo e suonarono (dal vivo e non) con R.E.M., Pearl Jam, Radiohead, A Tribe Called Quest, Gov't Mule, Beth Orton, The Fugees e John Lee Hooker. Nel 1999, uscì Burn to Shine, in cui figuravano Steal My Kisses e Suzie Blue, due hit nelle college radio. Nel 2001, durante il lungo tour seguente a Burn to Shine, uscì Live from Mars, un notevole doppio LP live acclamato dalla critica, con un disco elettrico e uno acustico, in cui si può notare quanto Ben dia importanza alla dimensione live delle sue canzoni, proponendo versioni spesso molto più profonde e ispirate, con parecchie improvvisazioni, delle sue canzoni, e cover d'eccezione come Drugs Don't Work dei Verve e Whole Lotta Love dei Led Zeppelin. Il disco del 2003, Diamonds on the Inside, offre una diversificazione di stili, dal reggae al funk, e una speciale apparizione di Ladysmith Black Mambazo. Curiosamente, appare come un ritorno alla linea di Fight for Your Mind, poiché né Dean Butterworth né David Leach vi appaiono. Il tour successivo vede l'aggiunta agli Innocent Criminals di Jason Yates alle tastiere e Marc Ford (ex dei The Black Crowes) alla chitarra. Stranamente il CD riporta gli Innocent Criminals a uno stato "non ufficiale", visto che Diamonds on the Inside viene accreditato solo a Ben Harper, anche se la band suona nelle registrazioni come negli album precedenti. Nell'ottobre del 2004, Ben partecipa al tour Vote for Change organizzato da Moveon.org per incoraggiare la gente dei cosiddetti "swing states" (stati in cui non c'è una chiara preferenza per un partito politico) ad andare a votare per le elezioni presidenziali USA del 2004. Nel 2004 inoltre Ben Harper ha collaborato con The Blind Boys of Alabama per un album marcatamente gospel, There Will Be a Light, vincitore di un Grammy. Un'edizione speciale dell'album contiene le versioni live di due canzoni e una versione inedita di I Shall Not Walk Alone. Grande successo negli USA ha avuto il tour successivo, con The Blind Boys of Alabama, dal cui concerto all'Apollo Theater di Harlem è tratto un LP live e un dvd, entrambi usciti nel 2005, Live at the Apollo. Durante l'estate del 2005, a seguito della cancellazione del tour programmato con Trey Anastasio e altri artisti, Ben Harper ha fatto un tour per club privati come l'Avalon Ballroom di Boston e il Tabernacle ad Atlanta. Questa serie di concerti ha visto il debutto di alcune nuove canzoni di Ben Harper, come Dressed In Black, Get It Like You Like It e Gather Round the Stone, di cui le ultime due incluse nell'album che è stato registrato durante l'autunno-inverno 2005 e uscito a marzo 2006. Il nuovo album doppio si chiama Both Sides of the Gun, ed è costituito da un disco funk (black) e uno di canzoni più lente (white). Ben Harper ha pubblicato tre DVD: un documentario intitolato Pleasure + Pain registrato durante il tour di Burn to Shine e diretto da Danny Clinch, che illustra com'è un tour con Ben Harper and the Innocent Criminals, e da cui scaturisce molto della personale filosofia del cantante; Live at the Hollywood Bowl, il primo concerto completo in DVD di Ben Harper, relativo al tour seguente a Diamonds on the Inside, che ha contestualmente pubblicato sotto lo stesso titolo anche un EP di 4 canzoni; e Live at the Apollo, un DVD contenente quasi tutto il concerto del 12 ottobre 2004 con The Blind Boys of Alabama all'Apollo Theater di Harlem. La famiglia di Ben Harper possiede un negozio di musica nella sua città natale, Claremont, il Folk Music Center, recentemente diventato anche un museo di strumenti musicali di diversi Paesi, con anche strumenti a corde stile vintage. Il negozio fu fondato dai nonni materni, Charles and Dorothy Chase, ed è attualmente gestito dalla madre Ellen Chase-Verdries, come si può vedere nel DVD Pleasure and Pain. Fondamentale per Ben Harper è stato crescere in questo negozio, dove ha anche lavorato per alcuni anni, e dove sua madre Ellen gli fece imparare a suonare la chitarra. Fin da piccolo imparò a suonare e a riparare strumenti musicali di ogni tipo, e vide il passaggio di vari famosi musicisti, che si recavano al Folk Music Center e suonavano nella sua città, Claremont. Ben Harper 3 Ben Harper ha sposato la sua fidanzata storica Laura Dern, attrice, il 23 dicembre del 2005 a Los Angeles; hanno due figli, Ellery Walker e Jaya, rispettivamente di 6 e 3 anni. Il musicista ha fatto un rapido cameo non accredidato nel film Inland Empire - L'impero della mente di David Lynch (la cui protagonista era proprio la moglie Laura Dern) nelle vesti di un pianista, durante i titoli di coda. Precedentemente Ben era stato sposato con Joanna, da cui ha avuto altri due figli, Charles Jr. nel 1996, e Harris nel 1999 Nel 2007 ha collaborato con Jovanotti suonando la chitarra nel pezzo Fango uscito in Italia il 7 dicembre e inserito nell'album Safari del cantautore italiano. Ben Harper al Festival International de Jazz de Harper ha partecipato al Festival di Sanremo 2008, nelle vesti di ospite, Montréal nel 2003 accompagnando Jovanotti (super-ospite italiano) nella sua esibizione. Pubblica nel marzo del 2009 il nuovo cd White Lies for Dark Times con la band Relentless7, composta da Jason Mozersky (chitarra), Jordan Richardson (batteria) e Jesse Ingalls (basso). Nel luglio 2010 è di scena sul palco dell'Heineken Jamming Festival a Mestre, durante il quale si esibisce prima con il suo attuale gruppo, e successivamente duetta prima con Eddie Vedder e poi con McCready dei Pearl Jam, suonando alcuni pezzi del gruppo di Seattle. Nel settembre 2010 incide una cover del gruppo INXS, la celebre Never Tear Us Apart in duetto con la cantante francese Mylène Farmer. La traccia è inserita in Original sin, un album di cover dello storico gruppo australiano interpretate da altri artisti internazionali.[4] Discografia Per approfondire, vedi Discografia di Ben Harper.

  • 3 Feet High and Rising”--De La Soul (1989) Added to the National Registry: 2010 Essay by Vikki Tobak (Guest Post)*
    “3 Feet High and Rising”--De La Soul (1989) Added to the National Registry: 2010 Essay by Vikki Tobak (guest post)* De La Soul For hip-hop, the late 1980’s was a tinderbox of possibility. The music had already raised its voice over tensions stemming from the “crack epidemic,” from Reagan-era politics, and an inner city community hit hard by failing policies of policing and an underfunded education system--a general energy rife with tension and desperation. From coast to coast, groundbreaking albums from Public Enemy’s “It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back” to N.W.A.’s “Straight Outta Compton” were expressing an unprecedented line of fire into American musical and political norms. The line was drawn and now the stage was set for an unparalleled time of creativity, righteousness and possibility in hip-hop. Enter De La Soul. De La Soul didn’t just open the door to the possibility of being different. They kicked it in. If the preceding generation took hip-hop from the park jams and revolutionary commentary to lay the foundation of a burgeoning hip-hop music industry, De La Soul was going to take that foundation and flip it. The kids on the outside who were a little different, dressed different and had a sense of humor and experimentation for days. In 1987, a trio from Long Island, NY--Kelvin “Posdnous” Mercer, Dave “Trugoy the Dove” Jolicoeur, and Vincent “Maseo, P.A. Pasemaster Mase and Plug Three” Mason—were classmates at Amityville Memorial High in the “black belt” enclave of Long Island were dusting off their parents’ record collections and digging into the possibilities of rhyming over breaks like the Honey Drippers’ “Impeach the President” all the while immersing themselves in the imperfections and dust-laden loops and interludes of early funk and soul albums.
