Following is an excerpt from Bridge Guitar Review:
Michael Henson, Flying Colors CD
This finger style guitarist from Oak Park,(IL) USA impresses with his debut solo acoustic album Flying Colors...The first piece of this album, Up the Ante, is pure and dedicated ragtime guitar with a strong rhythmic feeling and has a nice bass pattern. Michael's approach to ragtime and finger style is very direct with some Celtic impact, which invites you to dance.
