What I like the most is the fact that Steve loves doing this for his fans, he obviously gets a huge amount of satisfaction from playing live, and im so glad he is continuing to do so. What a gent. Many thanks.
The great Steve plays here his brother John Hackett (flute), Roger King (keyboards) and Rob Townsend (sax and flute). Many thanks for posting this wonderful video, I didn't know of this performance, relatively recent.
Merci STEVE de maintenir oh combien vivante cette musique incroyablement belle & indémodable . Cela dépasse les époques et émeut toujours autant . Poésie, grandeur & authenticité
La belleza hecha música. Gracias eternas, Steve Hackett por éstas hermosas melodías que reconfortan el alma y agradan al oído. El sueño que jamás podré realizar; tocar siquiera parecido a como lo haces tú todas éstas maravillosas obras de arte. Mucha suerte y larga y buena vida mereces, maestro.
Never will forget your acoustic show at the Swedish American Hall in San Francisco in 2005. First time I'd ever heard "After the Ordeal" performed Live. Lovely experience, that show.
Écoute sa guitare Classique , demandes ca a n importe autres , bonnne chance et surtout demande-leur en passsant d interpréter The Chaconne of J-S Bach comme Steve , son album Tribute , merci au Maitre Hackett
Steve was touring this lineup in about 2005, first half of show was just John, Steve and Roger doing stuff like this. Saw them in Somerville, MA. It was amazing.
Wish he’d do a tour like this again with his brother, John. His woodwind playing is tasteful and not distracting. I can say the same about Rob Townsend in his touring band.
Unfortunately only in Europe it seems. He no doubt makes more money off the Genesis revisited shows than the potential revenue stream off intimate shows such as this.
hello... i just wanted to say your steady camera saved my life. i was borderline bulimic, but this beautiful camera work has done me wonders. thank you!
One of the biggest disappointments in my life is that Steve H and Peter Gabriel never worked together on new material after Genesis. Such an opportunity missed.
Yeah, could have been great. PG and SH can both write and perform. Same with PC. Understatement of course. They are all exceptional writers/performers and I’ve enjoyed seeing them play live many times over the years. PG and SH together would have undoubtedly been more than the sum of their formidable individual parts. But best Genesis-early Genesis-doesn’t exist without TB’s compositions/arrangements. Brilliant albums start with Nursery Cryme IMHO and continue thereafter up to and including Lamb (PG’s baby) and maybe Trick too (though Trick of the Tail is a bit lesser to my ears; PG’s absence is manifest). Common denominator though for much of the great early Genesis music is clearly TB. Musical Box and Fountain of Salmacis, Cinema Show and intro to Firth of Fifth, Watcher of the Skies and Supper’s Ready Apocalypse in 9/8. Etc., etc. There’s little out there that’s arguably better 50 years on …
