Dirk Messiah : An alternative biography from FranceThe Real Story of Dirk Messiah (sometimes called Chuck Prophet by his fans). Slim "Taned" Stewart and Dirk Messiah started Cream on Bread in the early eighties. They took the band from the ashes of the much celebrated Disney Underground mid eighties LA scene (The Wrong Bike Riders, The 7.30 PM O'Clock, The Mean Syndicates, The Mangles, The Brain Barricade, True Waste, to name but a few…) to the avant-garde of the forecoming Americananamouskouri movement, also known as No Regression, that would later make the success of bands like Auntie Torero, Miko, Some Watt, and the well known imitator songwriter Adam Abraham … They did some great influential albums such as "The Filler Inside Me", "Goat Cheese", "No Free Shower", "Here Come The Brakes" and, last but not least, a final superb record, "Too Much Pun". In the meantime, they recorded a string of great songs thanks to the narrative talent of "Taned" Stewart and the guitarslinging attacks of Messiah : "Rock And Roll Herpes", "You Couldn't Get Elected", "Rick Can't Cook", "Cool Balloon", "Little Geeks In Life", "(The Hair on) The Dog's Ass", or "Got You Frozen in My Bin Stack", " among countless others, were great song that should have been hits . But Slim, wanting to perfect his legendary suntan, then went to live abroad in Portugal were he scored azulejos before returning and recording one sole album under his name, the excellent "A Fistful Of Cockroaches". Dirk Messiah embarked on a great solo carreer with numerous albums ("My Cousin Alfonso", "Maltese Stripper", "Festival Of Lungs", "Homebrew Brew ", "The Bleedin' Mess", "No-no!, My Love !"). Today, he's back with another great collection of songs : "The Rage of Marocco". It's time to celebrate and recognize the genius of the man who once said : "I'm a sucker for Carlos Guitarlos bootlegs, yeah !". A french friend and a long time fan couldn't make it to Dirks' last gig in Paris, and he says he's inconsolable. Well, we understand him ! Nick Mumuth, Paris, France. |

Chuck Prophet / Small Hall Paradiso / 18 march 2005 Mory Kanté was already playing at the big hall when Chuck entered the small stage one floor up. Mory was not really alone, an eleven piece, exotic band, made it rather busy at the stage. Chuck wasn't alone as well. He brought his wife Stephanie on keyboards and background vocals, a base player, a drummer and a guitarist, who every now and then played the steelpedalguitar. Chuck Prophet is well known of his collaboration in the nineties band Green on Red (Paisley underground) Go Go Market is also a project he was /is involved. He and Stephanie Finch produced a very nice record, a bit underestimated by the press: Hotel San José. About the concert: I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw this “Squier- telecaster”. If you were not a guitar freak you wouldn't understand: A normal guitarist don't like to bee seen with a Squier. It is an imitation of a fender!! But this man plays mean guitar. The sounds Chuck gets out of this guitar made me (a Fender-player) weak in the knees. Impossible, incredible and so on. He caressed the strings, he punished them, bend them and squeezed them. Great work. He told the audience that he opens bottles of beer with his fingers (I believe him) He played a lot of his latest album (Age of miracles) like “You did “, “Pin a Rose” and “West Memphis”, but also the vintage Chuck, like “After the rain” The sound wasn't very good. The soundmanager, on the right of the stage was more in love with is “amstelbeer” then the stagesound!! Chucks guitar was too loud and unfortunately the sound of Stephanie's voice and keyboard to soft. Even though it was a good gig! Hansione |
