New York, Aug 24 (ANI): Action man Steven Seagal claims that he may flaunt six pack abs and have the prowess to punch a person real hard but his fingers can also work magic over the guitar.

The pony-tailed action star brags that no actor alive can match his skills on a six-string.

"Kevin Bacon, Keanu Reeves, Russell Crowe, Kevin Costner - they're not even in my universe," Seagal was quoted by The New York Post, as saying..

"You can't find another actor who can play guitar as good as me. It's the truth," he added.

Seagal is promoting his new blues album, "Mojo Priest," which includes such standards as "Dust My Broom" and "Hoochie Koochie Man" as well as the self-penned tune, "Talk To My Ass." (ANI)

Steven Seagal's 'Mojo' Rising?
August 24, 2006

The 'Under Siege' star says he can handle his axe better than actor/musicians like Kevin Bacon, Keanu Reeves, et al.


Steven Seagal's not just a butt-kicking actor, he also claims to be a master of the six-string. The Under Siege and On Deadly Ground actor released his second album, a blues album called, Mojo Rising, and he's claiming he's the best actor-turned-musician out there. "Kevin Bacon, Keanu Reeves, Russell Crowe, Kevin Costner -- they're not even in my universe," Seagal told Guitar World Acoustic magazine. "You can't find another actor who can play guitar as good as me. It’s the truth." Also true: Seagal's latest includes covers of classics like "Hoochie Koochie Man," as well as the curiously-titled track, "Talk to My Ass." As Seagal's own site claims, "Watch those hands -- they are capable of many surprises."

I think the media is full of sh**!
He would never brag like that although it is true.
Everyone already knows he is great.

A self penned song titled "Talk to my Ass"?! This coming from a "Buddhist" I don't ever recall Buddhists and highly enlightened spiritual people writing such beautiful titles.
