STEVE HACKETT - In The Skeleton Gallery (Album track)

[@ramdom_9]

It has kinda like Alan Parsons project sound to it. Good stuff. I like how all the members of Genesis, Hackett, Phil, Peter, Tony, Mike, Daryl and Chester and so on, have done amazing stuff in their solo careers as well.

[@richardhibbs2200]

enjoyed seeing him with the Buffalo Philharmonic recently.The show in Buffalo was truly....... a magical experience - have always admired the diversity in his solo work - love this composition !

[@achillesamusic]

Woww.. what kind of magic is this...

[@TSPH1992]

Achilles A. That's Mr. Hackett for you

[@ledzeppyfreak]

Oh my god this is so FANTASTIC! Thanks Steve!

[@ladyblackstardust390]

Beautiful and amazing and mystical. From the heart/mind of Steve Hackett.

[@trevorpugh6475]

Oh yes!! Proper rock...... intrigue, wonder and sublime guitar licks from Steve, the man still keeping the dream alive. Wonderful stuff.

[@dennisbenzle7493]

Mind blowing

[@julianjoyce2577]

Wow ! un vrai "court-métrage" à grand spectacle ! Il s'y passe plus de choses en 5 minutes que dans des albums entiers de certains 'pauvres' artistes sans imagination. C'est captivant, somptueusement joué et produit, tout en ménageant des moments de respiration et de petits détours oniriques. D'ores et déjà un grand morceau !

[@supersayen0679]

Awesome! So many colors in ONE song.

[@TSPH1992]

Aurora Borealis

[@claudeboulanger5878]

EXELENT song, hope to get the album. I have been a follower since 1968 . I was 8 years old, so I heard them from my oldest brother. I heard that type of Rock and without understanding the language I LOVE THOSE GUYS, THE DOCTORS IN MUSIC...

[@johnbull333]

Great music.

[@2minstral]

An excellent track. Looking forward to the full release in March.

[@TSPH1992]

Steve Hackett. Never fails to deliver

[@stevesmith3990]

I wish I could feel the same way.

[@desperationmixtape6428]

I agree - seems a demo. Too many ideas - none of which strong. I don't like the voice. And the musical riff they are pretty the same since the clocks riff then heard again on many songs like camino royale and other.

[@sandrakece5437]

Saw him do this live last night in Reading, PA. It was absolutely mezmerizing! You need to hear it live, then perhaps you'll appreciate it more. Up in Smoke is fantastic as well live, can't wait to get the new album just for these two songs and I assure you there will be many more awesome songs!

[@mikeemerson9832]

I'll have to agree on that. A bit predictable.

[@rickylewis8178]

i saw him play these new 2 songs on long island last month too amazing totally amazing and YES sandra UP IN SMOKE is unreal i love when steve sings he's gotten better and better and better

[@charlesnolan7602]

41 years ago in March,1976, Steve truly started with VOY. OF THE ACHOLYTE, a solo career that continues this March.

[@johnbull333]

I love progresive Rock and Roll. 60's 70's 80's 90's XXI century's Since Génesis.

[@timlee7661]

Absolutely stunning as ever cant stop playing it !

[@tonicass1736]

Awesome. Can't wait for the album.

[@huarqui6547]

Genial Steve! Tu música como siempre con fuerza y con encantamiento!!! Thanks Steve! Buena Vida y Exitos!!!

[@rickylewis8178]

for the second time in 4 days i saw steve play this live last night in tarrytown ny it was amazing love his voice, perfect for his songs

[@mikequeteimporta]

Mystical, thanks Steve!

[@johnlinley4095]

What an amazing concert last night at Bridgwater hall Manchester 2 1/2 hour on stage he played this tune from the new album

[@jean-francoispayette92]

Génial Steve , incroyable , il y a encore de nos jours de vraies compositeurs grace a toi et quelques autres , merci Steve Hackett

[@rickylewis8178]

this entire album is amazing. love steve's singing his voice fits in well with this entire sound. another amazing album by a superstar genius

[@melbman43]

Wow, love the way he is really confident to sing theses days, well, OK its been happing for years

[@cameodamaneo]

Gotta be my favourite song from the album, just after Behind the Smoke. Absolutely beautiful.

[@jeczybula]

Fantastic music. Steve is a genius great musian!

[@brianmorgan6228]

great track,cant wait for the album,booked up for London & southend don't forget to play clocks

[@MegaCirse]

The Night Siren takes us in most of the time ("In Another Life") even though the emphasis ("West to East") and the theatrical sometimes return teasing ("In the Skeleton Gallery"). Not enough to tarnish the picture of a disc advancing like a mirage until "The Gift" which plays melancholy with a formidable efficiency!

[@rickylewis8178]

this is amazing no matter what era of his music it's ALL amazing

[@metalbearuk]

I only got into Steve's music with 'Wolflight' which has become one of my all time favourite albums. Sounds like he's continuing in that vein which suits me.

[@mattpodjeski4194]

metalbearuk I recommend his first few albums - Voyage of the Acolyte, Please Don't Touch, Spectral Mornings

[@ivanocogo9681]

Fantastic song

[@stewi1958]

Awesome can't wait for the new album

[@TonVenhuizen]

Beautiful (and impressive too)

[@billarkins745]

Get the new album, it's great. The Sustainer guitar on "The Gift" just goes right through me. One of those beautiful pieces that Steve brings to us. Please come and stand on the Red Rocks in Colorado. That setting was made for your soaring guitar. The new 21st century Rocky Mountain High! Steve Hackett is fantastic!!! I'm working on reproducing you sound with my new Sustainiac guitar. Thanks for the beauty and Inspiration, kind sir!

[@MCB-ls6nw]

I love all the magical comments. Just what I was thinking

[@PoleTotem2010]

Loved this in Cardiff. Looking forward to hearing it again tonight in Sheffield.

[@johnbull333]

Steve Hackett , I AM a Big fan of You, sience 1969.

[@MrKayley10]

INCREDIBLE! JUST INCREDIBLE!!!

[@leitemagal]

Nice one! It reminds me Thursday the Twelfh by Bankstatement!

[@fionayoung9354]

Can't wait to hear the new album

[@Cimbarius]

great album cover - nice artwork.

[@TSPH1992]

Aurora Borealis

[@iagosilame9875]

When I was young I was lonely Lost without you In my creepy building Without a clue Many people said I was dreaming Way, way up in the stars A spaceship out the back Footprints on Mars Shadows in the corner Pin me down in my room Scared to fall asleep Puppeteers on the move They always lay in waiting... Wake up! Jump out Before the song ends Get out! Hear the shout The puppeteer's not your friend

[@Jules00071]

FAB As Always

[@smithpm81]

Great track

[@michaelnicholls9532]

Superb. Can only assume the negative reviews have listened to the wrong thing. It's OK to have a sound, what do you want Drum 'n Bass?

[@fenderstratguy]

Love that beginning with the middle eastern scale

[@albertfish69]

awesome

[@Todd.Anderson]

Well, it sounds very much similar to "Wolfwork" from the "Wild Orchids"-album (I was listening to it this morning...). I hope the other songs are a bit more independent.

[@TSPH1992]

I think this is one of those songs to promote an album without revealing too much. If you know what I mean. The way this song ended made me realize that it will flow into something else + that there will be better songs on this album. This is one of those connecting tracks to make the album a whole.

[@mikeskinner7259]

[@mikeskinner7259]

I've. listen to steves music most of my adult life,always had a wonderful creative magic. with it.

[@kw19193]

Not to mention "Dust and Dreams" . . . Cheers!

[@jeffauger]

I agree that it is similar !

[@fredlillo]

Superbe !

[@troublesomecorsair]

Those strings, man. Always doing the Wolflight thing. I wonder what Nick Magnus is up to these days.

[@ΚώσταςΆγας-π6ε]

AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING*********************

[@Luileadolfo]

He has clearly been influenced by arabic music and all what is happening in Siria. This song has many changes and colors. Sometimes has a dense rock sound, then next, a sublime and mystic arabic influenced sound. Then a little bit of jazz...

[@gregF800]

I'd be willing to swear the first couple of minutes was co-written with Tony Banks.

[@gringochucha]

Valley of the Kings?

[@jeffauger]

I agree with you when I heard it it reminds me Valley of the Kings !

[@cowracer1]

Sounds like another copy and paste job, just like the last album. Sounds very similar to "a life within a day"

[@andreyyurkov290]

It reminds me of so many songs from Steve's last albums that it's a letdown

[@jeffauger]

I agree with you !

[@andreroldao1825]

Anyone with this lyrcs?

[@stan-doom]

Класс!

[@letmeouttamycage]

Is there such a thing as a 'bad' hackett album?

[@MindRabbits]

Violins sound as LASS library for Native Instruments KONTAKT ;)

[@MindRabbits]

As I know 2 previous albums Steve hired a violin girl, she can layer any strings

[@Patchessummerrain65]

Marvalous.

[@wonekawa]

Wake up! Jump out before the song ends!

[@ZootCat]

Anyone knows who the absolute amazing drummer is? I'll go ahead and guess Gary O'Toole.

[@mariaassuntacallegari2772]

DA SOGNARE AD OCCHI APERTI

[@magister8084]

Wish someone else could do the singing...

[@OkayCesarini]

Magister Better him than bloody Nad Sylvan

[@mattpodjeski4194]

Daniel Cesarini I think Nad does a great job

[@jeffauger]

I agree with you Steve Hackett is a great composer and guitare player but he is not a great singer !

[@mattpodjeski4194]

Love Steve's stuff...just not a fan of the (what seems) computerized harmonies sometimes. I know his band provides backing vocals, but often times it just doesn't seem natural

[@Sledr1994]

Don't know. The first 2 1/2 minutes are beautiful, the riff at 3:03 is really captivating, but the whole contruction of the song seems pretty confused, and the ending is disappointing and absolutely casual. Adding that the album sounds all pretty much the same as this one and that the choral part looses a lot when performed live... it just doesn't convince me.

[@AlleJansen]

Great song. This is better than seks....Far much better...

[@tantsev]

oh, come on! LZ did Kashmir 42 years ago - Does Steve Hackett think no one remembers that song?

[@asammler]

Good point. Though starting around 1:10 this does diverge from the "Kashmir" template and gets some life of its own.

[@arjanhut3527]

Never heard of it.

[@johansand572]

No resemblance at all..at least for me.

[@art.s9421]

Weird - Don't get it... Don't like it!

[@franckbizouard3357]

I'm afraid to say I'm depressed by Steve's last albums. Poor production, poor creativity, awful rythm section.... always the same kind of singing, of writing. Time to get a new productor Steve ? A Nigel Goodrich for instance ?

[@marktrevett881]

I agree Franck, I'm with you on that. Maybe get Phil, Tony and Mike to work their magic on his next album? Oh hang on, that would then be a very similar setup to another group called Genesis wouldn't it? lol! XD

[@franckbizouard3357]

May God hear you ;-)

[@desperationmixtape6428]

his albums disappoint since 1984

[@franckbizouard3357]

No, I don't agree, Darktown, Guitar noir, To watch the storm and Wild orchilds are great ones, with great tracks on.

[@kw19193]

Hmm, each album since "Defector" seems to have a couple of wonderful pieces on it, one or two kinda engaging pieces, and a bunch of, erm, stuff. The guy is simply written out. I'd much rather he take a few years off and then come back with an album that is, first to last, a killer. But at least he's still trying . . . unlike his former mates in Genesis. Cheers!
