I had to take off an album for this month as it appears to be not as freely available as it was supposed to be. Here’s a bonus album for the day in order to keep my promise of thirty albums for November.

M.Ace describes his Steel-String Flat Top Sedition as “a web album of primitive acoustic guitar instrumentals”. I am not sure of the term “Primitive” but the fifteen solo guitar compositions do have a rough edge about them. This is, for lack of a better term, brief punk-folk acoustic instrumentals; Sort of Leo Kottke meet The Minutemen unplugged. Each track exhibits some very imaginative playing and is quite fun to listen to. I especially like “Pegleg Flamingo” and “Dinosaur Stomp”. Recommended for those who want something different in acoustic guitar music.

The album is available in 192kbps MP3. You will also find quite a few other online albums by the artist on his web site but nothing that caught my attention like Steel-String Flat Top Sedition. Browse through it. You might disagree.
