		Charlie Musselwhite was born in the hill country of Mississippi, and landed in Memphis at a time when the city happened to come of age right along with him...
		Charlie was in "the scene", but he also brought the hard edges of Chicago with him, and to the flower children of San Francisco he was an exotic, intoxicating, very sexy phenomenon.
		Charlie himself is simply interested in sound – as he puts it, "music from the heart": international, cross-cultural, modern, and classic, those sounds and tones that have feeling.

		Musselwhite, with strong assistance from guitarists G.E. Smith and Robben Ford, as well as from vocalists Kelly Willis and Christine Ohlman, creatively captures the sonic sensibilities of the Memphis musical melting pot with a wide-ranging selection of songs.

		Charlie Musselwhite says that he has always rebelled against the tightly defined blues format and believes that music can be classified as blues more by the feeling than the format.

	Charlie Musselwhite - Delta Hardware (Album Review)
		Despite the music business’ best intentions of turning 2003 into the "Year of the Blues," the genre once again has slipped beneath the surface of the mainstream’s purview, meaning that many of its most talented musicians — such as harmonica ace Charlie Musselwhite — are likely to remain well-kept secrets.
		Not that Musselwhite hasn’t flirted with widespread recognition.
		However, unlike his past outings, the diversity of his approach becomes a detriment to him in that the album’s least interesting tracks are those that stray furthest from the blues.

		Musselwhite's second release on Peter Gabriel's Real World label, this album seems like even more of a departure for an imprint that primarily focuses on world music.
		Musselwhite says Real World's interest arose through an organic connection with the Blind Boys of Alabama: "I've known the Blind Boys for a long time; we crossed paths playing musical festivals and I became friends with the guys in the group.
		It's the culmination of a well-trodden path that began in Memphis, where Musselwhite came of age in the burgeoning rockabilly scene that saw Elvis Presley and Jerry Lee Lewis rise to stardom.

		Charlie Musselwhite, a Mississippi-born/California-resident harmonica player, has been pumping out superior blues albums since the 1960s.
		Yes, Musselwhite and band rock, but they rock not like rockers but like blues-soaked veterans of lowdown barroom and sweat-stained dancehall.
		Still, the most striking cuts, at least in terms of subject matter, are two Musselwhite co-writes, "Black Water" and "Invisible Ones," inspired by the Katrina disaster and Washington's unforgivably bungled response.
