With the prospect of a full blown reunion of the classic Peter Gabriel era Genesis growing ever more remote it’s down to guitarist Steve Hackett to fly the flag and celebrate their music covering the period from 1971’s Nursery Cryme to Wind and Wuthering released towards the tail end of 1976.
To the die-hard Genesis fan, this was the golden period, the most productive, creative and revered time of all.
Of all the former members of Genesis, Steve Hackett has been by far the busiest. Sure Peter Gabriel and Phil Collins have both had high profile solo careers and chart success but since leaving Genesis in 1977 Hackett has cut well over 20 studio albums in his own right.
Having first explored the Genesis Revisited concept in 1996 Hackett heeded the growing calls for a follow up and released Revisited II last year achieving his highest chart position in two decades.
The subsequent tour has snowballed into a two year worldwide trek which touched down at Sage Gateshead earlier this year returning to the City Hall for a second leg of the ever growing tour.
