Was listening to an Inside out Music sampler and a name I recognize (as a guitarist mentioned many times in guitar magazines) was on there: Steve Hackett. The song was "Brand New" from the 2003 release "To Watch the Storms" and it's pretty cool. I would recommend this more to guitarist than anyone else as it's prog-rock (kinda like fancy Asia) and not metal, but it's still pretty cool. I think I might buy it.

no way
Hackett rocked in Genesis only (imo)
Steve Howe played in Asia, but Steve Howe and Steve Hackett formed GTR. The Asia reference was due to Hackett's vocals sounding a bit like Asia's Whetton.

Yes that was when Genesis was a good band. Also check Hackett in U.K debut or a bit of his work in Gordian Knot - "Emergent" (2003).
