	GTR (band) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		GTR was a supergroup founded in 1986 by ex-Genesis guitarist Steve Hackett and Yes and Asia guitarist Steve Howe.
		GTR were notable for attempting to create a band with guitar and synthesizer sounds, but without the use of conventional keyboard synths, using guitar-based synthesizers instead.
		GTR's only studio album, a self-titled LP produced by Geoffrey Downes of Asia, released by Arista Records, went gold and spawned a hit single, "When the Heart Rules the Mind", which stayed in the charts for 16 weeks [1].

	Get Ready to ROCK! Review of CD album by melodic rock band GTR Greatest Hits Live featuring Steve Howe and Steve Hackett
		GTR were that pretty sparse commodity in the late eighties - "a melodic rock superband".
		GTR didn't last long so this serves as an excellent summary of their live performance.
		GTR were a good band, suitably airbrushed for American consumption.

	Rolling Stone : GTR: GTR : Music Reviews
		And unlike Yes and Genesis, GTR has no full-time keyboardist – no one to steal the spotlight from the Two Steves by slipping into a white cape, à la Rick Wakeman, and dazzling the fans with his tresses and his cadenzas.
		GTR also hired a ringer – songwriter-producer Geoff Downes of Asia –; to give the arrangements the requisite keyboard flavor with a minimal amount of keyboard playing.
		GTR is sure to hit the bull's-eye, for Downes and the Two Steves evidently have worked themselves pallid getting their songs to sound big and chartworthy.

	The Rockfiles-Lonesome Crow and Off Axis (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		The band had been looking for a guitarist or vocalist who shared their vision, and after auditioning a few, one was selected.
		He was what the band needed in a number of ways, and some of what was learned during this period would go a long way towards the attitudes of band members in the future.
		The band decided to fire Scott, and in a move that wasn't very nice to either Scott or Mike, Mike got the job of informing him that he was out, simply because everyone else seemed to 'vanish' into thin air during the supposed moment.

	DPRP - Forgotten Sons: GTR
		It seems that the band knew that this was to be the first single off the album and when hearing the track one gets the feeling that this is the track on which they try hardest.
		The album is a strong indication of the power and virtuosity this band possessed and which was not truly reflected on the debut album.
		The sound of the band on this album further reaffirms my belief that the main flaw with the GTR debut album was in its production which came across as being too polished for the guitar work of Hackett and Howe.

	Steve Howe
		In fact, his first band was a Chuck Berry-infused band called the Syndicats.
		However, when their label went bankrupt, the still unreleased album was scrapped and the band eventually became a casualty breaking up fairly shortly thereafter.
		Originally they wanted to call the band Yes, but bassist Chris Squire owned the rights to that name, so they went with the simplicity of their four last names and Anderson, Bruford, Wakeman and Howe was formed.

		Guitarist Steve Hackett needs no introduction having played with Genesis, the 80's supergroup GTR (along with fellow guitarist Steve Howe) and he has also built a successful solo career.
		My idea of heaven is that when musicians die they all end up in the same band...
		GTR had a hit album in the USA and a bankrupt company in the UK to fund it.

		The band were also friends with another act called The Topsiders who for a short while included Skip Spence, prior to his joining Jefferson Airplane.
		Later revelations that the band did not play on some of their album tracks perhaps diminish a little of their reputation, but they remain one of the most interesting West Coast bands and they made some fine music.
		In 1999, the band reformed for a gig at the 3-day "66-99" event in San Diego on 12th June and later at the New York 'Cavestomp '99!' on Nov 5-7th alongside The Standells, Monks et al.

	GTR Newspapers:Tulsan Leads Famous Army Band
		The band, known as Pershing’s Own after its creator, Army General John J. Pershing, maintains a tradition of excellence that began in 1922 as the premier musical organization of the Army.
		Visitors to the Army Band facility next to Arlington enter a self-sufficient artistic community for 250 people, with federal recording studios and a private library where military sheet music is pulled for study by streams of uniformed composers, vocalists, musicians, conductors, choreographers, and technicians.
		In 1983, I helped found the Army Band Tuba-Euphonium Conference and served as its chairman from 1995 to 2002.” Tuba and euphonium players from around the world attend this annual event.

		This is important to him and you don't see much of it nowadays The next time you come out to see the band, ask him to tell you a story about one or two of the road trips he has been on.
		When he isn't mastering the sound of the band live, he works for the Little River/Academy Volunteer Fire Dept. He has worked closely with the band to become a valuable part of the overall setting in which is necessary to provide the best musical experience for us, and our dancing friends.

	DPRP - Forgotten Sons: GTR
		The name for the band was the standard studio abbreviation for guitar, and the name for the group was also an indication of the reason why the two guitarists had joined forces.
		The longevity of GTR as a supergroup as not to be too prolonged as Steve Hackett began to argue with the other band members during the tour and by late 1986 he left GTR.
		Jonathan Mover was dumped from the band and his place taken by Nigel Glockler, a drummer known mainly for his work with heavy metal band Saxon.

	GTR discography, MP3 and reviews
		GTR was one of those 80´s "super groups"; band was formed around two very well know prog guitarists, Steve HACKETT (Genesis) and Steve HOWE (Yes, Asia), but GTR sound was completely different to the born bands of this two guitarists.
		GTR sound was oriented to FM radio, a commercial pop-rock of quality, but completely apart of prog sounds.
		GTR self title debut was published in may of 1986, and it sold more than 500.000 copies!!!

	GTR: Reviews, Discography, Audio Clips, and more \|\|\| Music.com
		Steve Hackett and Steve Howe -- lead guitarists for the prime periods of Genesis and Yes, respectively -- formed the band in 1986, not with the intention of reviving classic prog rock, but with the idea of making a stadium-shaking hard rock band.
		And, GTR 's lone eponymous album didn't deliver the fireworks that Howe and Hackett fans desired.
		There are glimmers of what might have been -- what GTR could have done if they dropped their crossover ambitions -- but as it stands, GTR marks the point in time when both Howe and Hackett took one last stab at commercially oriented rock, before turning toward more ambitious solo projects.

	ALBUM REVIEWS Steve Hackett (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		For those who saw Hackett perform with his new band on the 2001/02 tours, telling you that the chemistry between the players on this record is extremely strong will come as no surprise.
		To the commercial public, GTR was a welcomed breath of fresh air - an album with solid musicianship and catchy songwriting saturated into a hybrid of '80s pop music meshed with minorly audible progressive influences.
		While history has since reported that the band's personal chemistry had already significantly deteriorated by this point in the summer of 1986, it certainly is not evident on the performance featured here.

		The Platterrack took on The Las De Das as the resident band, replacing the Dallas Four (among whose claims to fame was the discovery of brilliant young vocalist Leo De Castro).
		This was a major disappointment for the band, who had worked for several months to arrange and rehearse the piece, and the failure of the deal was a massive letdown for Trevor Wilson.
		With producer Howard Gable, the band was joined at a booze-fuelled party session by an all-star cast of mates including Billy Thorpe, Tony Hamilton (Pirana), Laurie Pryor (Healing Force), Duncan McGuire (In Focus) and the erstwhile Bruce Howard, who was now a member of The Aztecs.

		Robert gives an entirely fresh approach to this earliest of Yes hits and still is able to retain the integrity and energy of the original.
