Mostly We Drive, the debut album by Michael Messer & Chaz Jankel, sees two of Britain's finest musicians recording together for the first time.

Virtuoso slide guitarist-singer-songwriter Michael Messer (favourite of Johnny Cash) & multi-instrumentalist Chaz Jankel (The Blockheads) have created an exhilarating accessible album comprising 11 original songs of mesmerising grooves with superb slide guitar playing & thought-provoking lyrics that bears comparison with the finest work in either of their garlanded careers. The album received a 5* star review from RnR magazine.

"The quality of the playing is exceptional – they are both masters at their crafts – and the end result is an album of many highs and no lows. The music just flows easily." - music-news.com

"Slide guitar supremo meets Blockhead Chaz - Result: A philosophical, funny, funky, multi-faceted gem of an album, and that’s a description that I believe, nails it. As you’d expect, there are copious servings of blues, all embellished by musical and lyrical twists that, for example, stamp a steadfastly 2024 British trademark on the product, or inject a surreal element to proceedings. There’s also a healthy chunk of Blockheads-like funk to be enjoyed and even a touch of pastoral English whimsy – and, despite the sometimes sticky subject matter of the lyrics, humour is seldom very far below the surface." John Barlass - At The Barrier
