This was their major debut album released in 1995.
This ambitious work freely crosses over roots music such as folk, blues, soul, and reggae, while imbuing it with a sharp social consciousness and introspective spirit.
Featuring a wide range of tracks, from socially critical songs like "Excuse Me Mr." to quieter, more spiritual numbers, the album boasts a high level of overall perfection. This album had a definite presence in the alternative/acoustic scene of the 1990s, marking the starting point for Ben Harper as an artist and setting the course for his subsequent career.
