[PODCAST]

Steve Hackett features in our progressive and classic rock sequences.

Steve Hackett replaced Anthony Phillips in Genesis in 1970 and stayed with the band through their formative prog-rock period recording eight albums. His first album with the band – Nursery Cryme – was released in November 1971 and he quickly stamped his individual style on such songs as ‘The Musical Box’ and, later, with ‘Watcher Of The Skies’ (from Foxtrot, 1972) and ‘Firth of Fifth (from Selling England By The Pound released in 1973). During his time with Genesis he released the solo album Voyage To The Acolyte in 1975.
