Can he hack it? I think so! Steve Hackett, ladies and gentlemen. One of the most influential guitarists of the seventies, being looked up to by Eddie Van Halen, Alex Lifeson, Brian May and Steve Rothery. It’s no wonder that this guitarist was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of Genesis in 2010.
Being in Genesis however, didn’t hinder the fact that this guitarist had time to record his own albums and put them out there only for them to chart his first six making the top 40. Tonight is in celebration of some of his most successful works. Opening with the distinct sound of “Every Day”, this audience are full of nothing but alcohol and praise as they sing along, loud and clear. “Sentimental Institution” is another song that keeps this gathering on their toes, enjoying the show in front of them. There is absolutely no doubt that Hackett is a good singer, but when he launches into his guitar solos, the audience go absolutely wild for it.
