  Steve Hackett-Time Lapse Live

This Is a cool live album featuring Hackett solo material with two different bands. It is a good retrospective of his solo career because you hear the really good stuff live and don't have to hear the not so good tracks. You may see it with different covers.
 

Steve Hackett-Guitar Noir

The 90's was a rebirth for Steve in my opinion. This album comes right after Steve delivered a track for GUITAR SPEAK III-no longer made(A LIFE IN MOVIES mp3). All I can say is this album doesn't sound like rehash of the old Steve and even his vocals have improved. A mix of vocal and instrumental tracks it is quite good.

 

Steve Hackett-Blues with a Feeling

Sorry to say that I am not a big blues fan. Having said that I won't try to rate something I normally don't listen to. It is well recorded and and I like a few tracks so with that said I'll give it some stars on that basis.

 

Steve Hackett-There Are Many Shades to the Night

A rare live performance in Italy by Steve and Julian Colbeck. It is an acoustic performance with Keyboards and is quite entertaining.


 

Steve Hackett-Genesis Revisite

It is what is sounds like. Steve Reworking some old Genesis favorites. The best part about this is the line up which features such progressive greats as Bill Bruford, John Wetton, Tony Levin and Chester Thompson. Firth of Fifth is probably the best in this collection with Wetton doing his version of Gabriel. It's good, but a few tracks really bite. Like YOUR OWN SPECIAL WAY. This version just stinks.
