Analysis: Steve Hackett Part 1

http://www.lileighwhite.com/ For Fanatical Lamb Lies Down on Broadway Fans - an examination of the re-tracking and relaying of some of Steve Hackett's most well-known solos from the Live Shrine Auditorium Lamb show, in LA, in Jan,'75 - for the Archive Genesis release of 1998. An e-mail from Mr.Hackett, himself, forms the basis of this side-by-side analysis. **My apologies for my "slip-of-the-tongue" where I unknowingky reversed the words of "Firth of Fifth". This was not intentional, believe me!** FOR ENTERTAINMENT & DEMONSTRATION PURPOSES ONLY!

@LileighWhiteLilith Hi there came across this channel by accident thanks very much for this rich information about an epic band, being a sound engineer yourself, I am sure you agree with me that Alan Parsons is a superb engineer like your self!

@rick4777 ~ Wow...being mentioned in the same sentence as the impeccable & uber-talented Alan Parsons is, in of itself, an incredible honor. Thank you, Rick !

xoxo Lil

My word that was absolutely wonderful Lileigh. I You are putting so much into all this. Your videos area joy to watch both because you are looking at my all time favourite band in their most creative period, and because your presentations are so interesting and compelling; and what's more your are a beautiful woman.

So good that you did this clip about Steve and that he corresponded. I've been learning classical guitar off and on for a couple of years now and so couldn't resist the temptation to tackle 'Horizons' off the Foxtrot album. It's difficult! But it gives a great deal of insight and respect for the man who as you rightly say is a gentleman surrounded by industry carnivores!

I wish Steve would play the Lamia solo live these days.

Great video and A/B of the difference between the Lamb album and Archive boxset. Bass pedal is great in the boxset! I was fortunate enough to have been at that Shrine Auditorium concert in '75. At the time, I had no idea who Genesis was. A co-worker had two tickets way up at the very top of the theatre. I was invited at the very last minute when his girlfriend couldn't attend because of the flu. It has remained one of the most memorable concerts I have ever seen - and I have seen plenty!

I never thought I'd see a prog rock blonde fan, and really pretty, sorry couldn't help it ;) I found your description compelling and amazingly savvy. I'm also a huge fan of the Lamb and appreciate the difference between the old and new recordings. Steve's guitar sounds technically and better on the new ones, but being quite a purist myself, I think the original's atmosphere and mood can't really be reproduced due to the unique emotional process of the band when making this masterpiece

@LileighWhiteLilith my pleasure, love your videos!

I am a indie artist as well as a keyboardist. Tony Banks is my all time fave. Hope to meet him someday and ask if i can play his solo material on my indie radio show.
