Michael Messer - King Guitar flac album

Michael Messer (born 28 February 1956) is an English singer, songwriter, slide guitarist and record producer. He is noteworthy for his ability to combine acoustic National steel guitar, as well as slide guitar, into his playing style. The American magazine, Spirit, listed Messer as one of the greatest slide guitarists alongside Duane Allman and Ry Cooder. Messer is included in the Virgin Encyclopaedia of the Blues. He also appeared in his own 'blues' episode of the BBC Television show, ZingZillas.

There's something fun and catchy about Michael Messer's eclectic album, King Guitar. Although the guitar featured on the cover is a vintage acoustic model, the music runs the gauntlet between down-and-dirty electric blues and quiet Delta slide. In a way, this mixture is sort of like an early Fleetwood Mac, with Peter Green and Jeremy Spencer bringing different blues styles together in one group. Messer, however, accomplishes all of this by himself. His acoustic slide guitar is the epitome of taste on the lovely "Crow Blues" and the happy, upbeat "Steel Guitar Blues.

Each Messer guitar is fitted with Michael's own-name Newtone strings (. 13-0. 056), although you also get a . 15 for the top-string, as Michael uses himself. Even from the first strum you hear what caught Messer's original interest. So many low-end resonators sound tinny and metallic, but not this one. It's a beautiful and really full-bodied, growling, reverb-y tone combining almost banjo-like plunk with the sonority of a metal bell. Unique and highly evocative, for such an affordable guitar, the Blues nails it well.
