One of the most influential guitarists of his generation, Johnny Marr stepped out on his own with the release of The Messenger in 2013 which reached the Top 10 on the UK album charts. Now, this seminal debut solo album returns in a stunning, limited-edition ‘messenger marble’ vinyl pressing, a must-have for fans and collectors alike.
The Messenger marked a pivotal moment for the iconic guitarist, solidifying his place as a solo artist after years of influential collaborations.

The album's enduring sonic brilliance, originally recorded in the UK and Berlin and mastered at the legendary Abbey Road Studios, is perfectly captured on this collectible edition.
Whether you're revisiting a classic or discovering it for the first time, The Messenger remains a testament to Johnny Marr's enduring talent and a cornerstone of modern guitar music.
