Just this afternoon, heard a great interview with Charlie Musselwhite and Ben Harper on NPR. Looking for the exact interview... couldn't find it but found one from this past April.

Looks like Mr. Musselwhite is using Greg Heumann's custom mic.

Tuff call. All are excellent albums/CD's and all have their different merits. Having seen the Little Walter Tribute show when it came thru town , with all the stellar talent that contributed I might lean in that direction.....but Cotton Mouth Man is so good and sadly may be James' last shot.....but Charlie and Ben are such a perfect match together...... .Like I said. Tuff call.
