On the subject of A Rare Hint Of Perfection In Artistry There are millions of guitar players in the world. And the truly gifted and talented probably number in the many thousands. Then we discover only a handful of those who have come so close to true perfection. Matt Thorpe is one of these very unique players. His styling is pure and smooth and can be as sharpe as the fine edge of the sabre. One can tell that years of sacrifice has gone in to the beautiful sounds and tones that he achieves thruout all of his works. I first stumbled onto a Matt Thorpe song a few years back and since that very moment he has been a total inspiration to my own work. He is a master of the six strings and continues to grow and evolve. We...the entire world are blessed that he shares this with us most freely. If you love solid guitar rock...Blues at its best...a slick test of the Jazzy side and all the funkyness a finger and string can possess Matt can give it all.... He's also become a very close friend over the years although I have never met the man in person I hope that will happen someday so that I can shake his hand and say thankyou from my heart.

On the subject of Definition Of A Guitarist: "Matt Thorpe" In my forty six years of playing the guitar one would think that I have mingled amongst and/or heard the best guitar artists there is. Well, not even close until I had the pleasurable experience of listening to Matt Thorpe's Guitar. Now I have never met Matt Thorpe face to face but would very much like to do so. Although I'm here to tell you that when I do there is no doubt that I will be shaking the hand of a guitarist that is without doubt "The Best Of The Best" Thank You Matt Thorpe for all your wonderful music and versatile styles. You are without a doubt a gift from God! Respectfully Submitted By: Doc "Mistabluesman" Quinn

On the subject of This man has changed my life !!!!! During a night of playing the top 20 rock intrumental tracks on mp3.com, I stumbled across Matt Thorpes "Fret Jive". I could hardly believe my ears. This track is sheer musical poetry. I soon became a Matt fan, and by Xmas had the entire collection of CD's. all masterpieces. The attention to detail is awesome, every note milked to the last drop. It's easy to think (as I did ), that a Les Paul & a JMP1 will give you this sound, but it's Matt's technique thats the secret. Must rush to buy 7th Frets .... PS the collaboration with John Cohner is magic ....

Doug "Deacon" Robertson signed this guestbook on Mon, May 20th, 2002 They visited from Toledo OH USA

On the subject of Thanks for the music, Matt When I first downloaded a few of your tunes from mp3.com, I was immensely impressed with the way you fluidly combined great tone, wonderful chops, deep expressiveness, and excellent phrasing into your playing. As a guitarist of over 33 years now, I can really appreciate a player who adds some of his/her own soul to the work and the instrument. You have most certainly accomplished that! I soon went back and bought 4 of your CDs straight away. Do you ever tour the States? I would love to have the opportunity to catch a performance of yours. Regards, Doug "Deacon" Robertson

On the subject of Thanks for keeping the Blues alive! Matt, have bought several of your CD's off of MP3.com the past couple of years and always come looking for new releases!! You mention in your bio that you kind of lost touch with the music when punk came out, but then Stevie Ray came on the scene and saved us from a boring death - how ture that is - but you have brough light and life back to the music just as stevie did. Johnny Lang and Kenny Wayne are good, but you walk all over them. Never stop playing that Les Paul, you can't get a better sound that is so rich and full as well as sustain or that growling anger or hurt that it produces. The Strat is beautiful too, but for a wide range of emotions, the Paul just has it. Much GREAT sucess and keep the music coming!!!

On the subject of It's been a while Hi Matt, I like the website - it would appear that you are becoming well known as an excellent blues guitarist !! - as if I didnot know. I'll be aquiring some of your collection shortly. You maybe amused , but I still have one of the tapes that you made with Phil Savage (the one with the Girlschool cover !) - plus the Masque tape that I did before leaving the UK in '88 - I still love the solo you did on it (the one that took 5 minutes to create and record !!) - Hope to here from you soon - Ian

On the subject of From the horses mouth To all of you fine people with the great good taste to have listened to, enjoyed and expressed your pleasure at this man's talent. Take it from me, you will never meet a more unassuming, modest and gifted human being. I have had the great good fortune to have appeared with Matt on many occasions, we have shared the ups and downs of every bar room blues band. Let me tell you, no matter how seedy the venue or how small & unappreciative the crowd may be, Matts playing transcends all and leaves the truly appreciative in awe! And that's no lie! If you ever get the chance, no matter how far you might have to travel you MUST hear Matt live to truly appreciate what I was lucky enough to take for granted! Play it like it is matt!

Paul Williams signed this guestbook on Sat, Oct 5th, 2002 They visited from Whitehaven Cumbria England

On the subject of Feeling and emotion..... I first happened across one of Matt's tracks on mp3.com about a couple of months ago. It was "A Gunslinger's Blues", and man, it totally blew me away. This man is a guitar genius! I immediately started looking for any CD's of his here in the UK, but either I'm looking in the wrong places or the UK music industry is missing out on another Gary Moore, IMHO. I've listened to various tracks of his now, and can't get over how much feeling and emotion there is in his music. May you continue to preach the Blues gospel, Matt. You have the power, my man.

On the subject of Gift From God! Hi all, I'm back again. Back in Feb. 2002 I made a post on here and this is what I said... "Now I have never met Matt Thorpe face to face but would very much like to do so. Although I'm here to tell you that when I do there is no doubt that I will be shaking the hand of a guitarist that is without doubt "The Best Of The Best" Thank You Matt Thorpe for all your wonderful music and versatile styles. You are without a doubt a gift from God!" Well, I did get to meet Matt at a blues jam and recording session in Nashville, Tn. last Sept. 2002, and I was right in my earlier posting. Matt is without a doubt a gift from God. What a person he is and his guitar playing is by far Aabsolutely Beautiful. By far the best guitar player I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. No doubt, the Best Of The Best. What a great pleasure it was and a memory I will remember as long as I live. Once again Matt, thank you for your beautiful guitar music and treasured friendship!

Timothy Lamb signed this guestbook on Sat, May 24th, 2003 They visited from Flint Michigan U. S. A.

On the subject of Thanks for keeping it alive! Hey Matt! Great guitar stuff there! I'm cruisin' the same path here in Flint, Michigan with the Buick City Blues Band. We have the legendary Larry McCray living just down the road from us and we get together quite often. How is it getting blues gigs in England??? It's pretty tough around here. This is an industrial town, and the people that come out to the clubs want to hear nothing but classic rock hits and just general radio trash. We're still doing it though, and have been since '94. Give us a listen and leave a comment on the messageboard. Thanks!

On the subject of Money Matt, you seriously need to inxnay Mixonic Corporation. Trying to purchase your music but can't. I've emailed them telling them their web site won't accept my fully functional legit Visa Platinum. I even tried to call them at (415) 252 5915 an recording says it's out of service. I think the business side of your talent is costing you. Your music is the best but they're preventing it from being heard. (falling tree in forest thing) Will keeping an open ear for your music and hopefully for your benefit it isn't bootleg. Best to you!

On the subject of Hello Sutton boy Hey Matt. I've often wondered how you're doing and worse: what you might look like. I saw your entry on FriendsReunited under Fairfax School 1975. I'm still in touch with Claire Smith, she lives in Kingston-upon-Thames, she's a fashion person. I've lost touch with Kelvin Green recently: I went to his 40th party a few years ago but he's now gone awol now. Kevin Youngman has moved to Scilly Isles and become reclusive. I've lived in Bristol for the past 20 years and love it. Wonderful family with two kids. No motorbike but 4x4 off-roader. Music, lots of music on vinyl: metal and trance. I freelance in computers. I'm glad to make contact with my old mate from junior school. Neal
