Description:

Former Genesis guitarist Steve Hackett and DJabe, Hungary's leading world/ethno fusion band formed in the mid 90's, collaborated to record a live performance in Hungary in '22. This is a 2CD+Blu-ray 3CD set of the live performance in Hungary in '22. As mentioned above, the CD and Blu-ray include the sound and video of the '22 Hungary concert, respectively. As a bonus, the CD contains the soundtracks of 'Clouds Dance', 'Castelsardo at Night', and 'Olomoucz Blues', while the Blu-ray includes a documentary of the '22 tour, live footage from Austria and Czech Republic in '22, and film clips.The performance will feature songs from their previous collaborations, "LIFE IS A JOURNEY," "BACK TO SARDINIA," and "THE MAGIC STAG," as well as covers of familiar GENESIS/Steve Hackett songs such as "The Steppes," "In That Quiet Earth," "Last Train to Istanbul," "HairlessHeart," "Firth of Fifth," and "Los Endos," among others. The band also performed GENESIS/Steve Hackett covers such as ''Firth of Fifth'' and ''Los Endos'', all of which are well-known from their collaborative performances, along with the DJABE members' solid performance skills and their unique improvisation and relaxed guitar playing, which is recognizable as Steve's at a first listen. The jazz rock/fusion sound is still alive and well on this album. The above-mentioned GENESIS/Steve Hackett numbers also have a different color from Hackett's recent solo performances due to the Mediterranean/Balkan tones created by the members of DJABE, making this album a must-see for GENESIS/Steve Hackett fans.The arrangements are neat and smooth, almost jazz-like, which is similar to the smooth jazz of their latest album "THE MAGIC STAG", but the live performance is also very exciting. This is a live disc where you can enjoy a variety of performances/arrangements along with a video that allows you to observe each player in detail!
