 LET IT ROCK - Steve HACKETT discography
Perhaps, it's down to Hackett's rock background that the guitarist doesn't turn chamber when he lays his hands on an acoustic instrument, and if previously Steve's unplugged performances might sound a bit sterile, as documented on "There Are Many Sides To The Night", having resumed active touring, in 2002 he gives it a full blow.
John Wetton's voice really shines in it, much more than on "Genesis Revisited" and there should be no comparisons with Pete or Phil because this version rocks with another dimension given by John's pumping bass and Ian's flute in soft spots.

 John Hackett and the Methodists
There is no doubt that John Hackett was a remarkable man. As well as increasing and diversifying the business he was an active and devout Methodist whose faith was tested by the tragically early death of his son John at the age of 21 in 1824.
John was not buried in the graveyard despite the fact that the bodies of other members of the Hackett family were brought back for burial from as far as Hyeres in France and Manchester.
This was probably because the fact that, shortly after the Church was built, John grew dissatisfied with the way in which the Methodists of Derby conducted themselves, particularly because of the way in which the rich and influential members were expelling what he considered to be the most active and zealous local preachers.

 1985 Revisited   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
Hackett’s purpose was to present his thesis that the only alternative to a nuclear holocaust in World War III is for the West to be prepared adequately to wage the most advanced conventional war against the Soviet Union and its satellites.
Although Hackett’s two books narrate the same fictional war, there is very little duplication between them, and the differences in the two accounts are striking.
Hackett, like many intelligent and knowledgeable individuals, supports one of the primary options available to Western society.

Flutist John Hackett has played on many of his brother Steve's solo albums, but this is the first full-scale collaboration between the two.
John's playing is so natural and fluent, it seems almost divinely inspired.

 PROGRESSIVEWORLD.NET: REVIEWS BY JOHN "BOBO" BOLLENBERG
Although the duo had discussed whether at all to include an orchestra for this one they decided that the music of Satie didn't need any extras and would be perfect just for the "stripped" sound of guitar and flute.
Needless to say the album is more of a solo spot for John's flute playing as opposed to the accompanying acoustic guitar in the background.
That's why the Hackett brothers had this great idea of including a couple of "guitar only" tracks in the middle of the album to sort of make a "bridge" between two guitar/flute parts.
