Steve Hackett, City Hall, Sheffield, South Yorkshire.

 

03-May-2017

 

Apart from his work as Genesis guitarist, Steve has recorded 27 studio solo albums, and numerus collaborations with other artists, covering a wide range of music including various styles of rock, pop, classical, blues, World, etc. etc. So choosing a representative song is near impossible.

 

The beautiful and all too short 'Kim', featuring his brother John on flute : www.youtube.com/watch?v=FGG02XskMEo

The more poppy 'Every Day' : www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQaGCNGgfe4

My favourite Genesis song 'Firth of Fifth' : www.youtube.com/watch?v=SD5engyVXe0. If new to you, you'll hate this song first listening, but will be rewarded on 5th.

And if you're still with me, from his current album, a song about the plight of refugees throughout history, his own descendants Polish war refugees 'Behind the Smoke' : www.youtube.com/watch?v=IkjNNClccOI
