Frank Hannon - Guitarz From Marz (2005)


I love Tesla, but I wasn't a fan of Moon Dog Mane, but Hannon's project, 'Guitarz From Marz' is certainly refreshing. This is a cocktail of funky rock, straight up metal shredding, and many other flavours thrown in for good measure. Nigh on seventy-odd minutes, the more you listen the more you become hooked on this sugary guitar trip. Fluent and trippy ('Diamonds...'), soulful ('Re-Evolution') and downright cool ('Touch Of Magic') I'm sure that most rock fans will find something to savour here. I'm not sure how well this stuff sells but it's great to hear it, because Hannon is clearly a talented musician.
