"All That Matters Now" - 2021 Remix

In January of 2013, roots dude Ben Harper and blues+ harmonica master/guitarist Charlie Musselwhite released an album called, “Get Up!”. The album’s final track (#10) is “All That Matters Now”, written by Harper & Jason Mozersky. (If you’ve ever heard the theme song for the cable TV series, “The Wire”, you’ve heard the harmonica of Charlie Musselwhite.)

I love making music with my harmonicas, etc. so I decided to cover the song on a 2016 suggestion by an Australian musician I knew from the Ukulele Forum - I’ve remixed it here.

As I witness the total collapse of civility, common sense and Western civilization, the lyrics for “All That Matters Now” seem particularly poignant these days. This is sort of my, “End Times Song”.
