    Avec des gars comme ça tu as l'impression d'être dans leur intimité et de faire un bœuf avec eux
    Les seuls concerts que j'aime intimiste et soul spirit.

    Next to Bill Wither's original rendition , this has to be the definitive performance of Wither's classic Grandma's Hands, marvelous.

    Soul music deserves its name. It feeds and rewarms the soul. Every note singed and played is a step through the unknown universe of the creativity that only humanity is capable of. Listening to it is like allowing myself to be vulnerable and curious while being absolutely sure I will enjoy it and I'm never disappointed.

    Grandma's hands
    Clapped in church on Sunday morning
    Grandma's hands
    Played a tambourine so well
    Grandma's hands
    Used to issue out a warning
    She'd say, "Billy don't you run so fast
    Might fall on a piece of glass
    "Might be snakes there in that grass"
    Grandma's hands
    Grandma's hands
    Soothed a local unwed mother
    Grandma's hands
    Used to ache sometimes and swell
    Grandma's hands
    Used to lift her face and tell her,
    She'd say "Baby, Grandma understands
    That you really love that man
    Put yourself in Jesus hands"
    Grandma's hands
    Grandma's hands
    Used to hand me piece of candy
    Grandma's hands
    Picked me up each time I fell
    Grandma's hands
    Boy, they really came in handy
    She'd say, "Matty don' you whip that boy
    What you want to spank him for?
    He didn't drop no apple core"
    But I don't have Grandma anymore
    If I get to heaven I'll look for
    Grandma's hands

    Soul, rhythm and blues, jazz, hip-hop, and in the end it takes you back to the African-American church and what some call the wailer's bench. It's where you could hear the senior sisters and brothers hum and sing from a place so deep in their being it contained the passion and pain they felt. Some may ridicule but if you've ever witnessed these elders singing you would hear the roots of Ben and Gregory's singing, the place where it came from. These brothers took Mr. Withers classic to a place only hinted at, this is an incredible performance.

    Ben L'oncle Soul looks like Chance the rapper and Ben Harper had a baby, his style is too cool. Ben L'oncle Soul is an amazing artist, love his rendition of Frank Sinatras tracks also.

    Now I really feel these guys have put something extra into grandma‘s hands. There seem to be so many versions of this song by admittedly talented people but it is inside each of us when we hear the genuine article we feel it too, like sympathetic strings. Bravo for doing justice to The great Bill Withers.

    I have never felt the touch of grandma's hands (unfortunately they both died before I was born). Maybe that's the reason this song hit my soft spot so strong...and, yea, these guys made a super soulful rendition of a classic Bill Withers' song

    "Grandma's Hands" (Les mains de grand-mère) ce morceau qui fut à l'origine un poème puis devenu un chant de lutte contre l'esclavage, est composée par Bill Withers, dont le grand-père maternel était né en esclavage, était dédié à sa grand-mère. Fait aussi partie de son premier album " just as I Am (1971)", et fût publié en tant que single, atteignant la 18ème place du Best Selling Soul Singles et quarante deuxième sur le Billboard Hot 100. Le thème principal de la chanson est la force protectrice et nourricière des mains, telle qu'exprimée dans le dernier couplet !! Cette chanson a été revisitée par de nombreux autres artistes, tels que : Al Jarreau , Kristy Lee , Meg Mac , Merry Clayton , Livingston Taylor , Les Chanteurs de Staple , Gladys Knight , Tony Orlando , Barbra Streisand , Gregory Porter , Will Downing , Gil Scott-Heron dans l'album Reflections en 1981. Blackstreet dans leur premier hit No Diggity ont samplé qui est ici repris par Ben l'Oncle Soul (Benjamin Duterde) et Gregory Porter dans Alcaline, début 2014 est devenu un véritable hymne et quelle beauté !!
