Dans les années 70 quand j allais voir Genesis,cet homme se tenait sur le coté de la scène,dans la pénombre. Avec le temps,il a gagné en assurance,en virtuosité et bien vieillit. Peut être, parce qu il a su quitter le navire à temps,juste après Gabriel,avant que le groupe ne sombre dans une soupe commerciale ? Merci pour pour tant de beauté :)
40 ans après... IMPARABLE !!! Hackett est un pur génie de la composition progressivo/classique (et jazz quand il s'y met...). Ce type est un joyau ! sa musique est une magnificence Merci de nous avoir livré et continuer à le faire (les deux derniers cd sont magnifiques), autant de merveilles qui font du bien à nos petites âmes, parfois, perdues.
Tout à fait. Steve Hackett est pour moi le meilleur guitariste de tous les temps. Son solo dans "Firth of fifth" issu de l'album "Selling England by the pound", de Genesis, est, je crois, le plus beau solo de guitare de tous les temps, à égalité avec celui de David Gilmour dans le titre "Comfortably numb".
Another masterpiece from mister Steve ( Stephen... - GENESiS 1970/1971-->1977/1978 ) Hackett and/from his music-universe - Thanx a lot, Steve + Amanda Lehman + Steven Wilson ... :-)
Steve Hackett of Genesis and Steven Wilson of Porcupine Tree on the same stage together, a real meeting of true geniuses of the prog genre, it doesn't get any better than these guys and when you add Hackett's amazing band to the mix, what you get is an epic performance. I would definitely Shadow Of The Hierophant up there with 'Spectral Mornings' as one of the greatest songs Hackett has ever written, it just gets better and better with every listen.
It's 4 o' clock in the morning and I have to get up at 7 but it is imposible stop hearing this gem I just have discovered from this surprising talented man.
Saw him live at Birmingham Symphony Hall on Monday The 1st of May. When he played this he got a standing ovation for several minutes. The band were going off for the interval but couldn't due to the audience applauding. I first saw him play this live at Birmingham Odeon in '78 on the Please Don't Touch Tour, and can remember being utterly mesmerised by it then. Monday night transported me back to my teenage years and I was as utterly transfixed by it as I was back then. Foxtrot's loss was Voyage Of The Acolyte's gain. Even though on this tour he has dropped Supper's Ready from his set list I didn't feel at all cheated. I've been to hundreds of gigs over the years and Monday night's was easily in my top 5.
I was there and was mightily impressed by Nick Beggs on bass and pedals. Easily the best gig I've seen in years, and despite going on to see Robert Plant and Phil Collins later in the year, I still stand by that statement.
The concert DVD/Blu-ray recorded at Birmingham - Wuthering Nights - has Nick Beggs sitting down at the end and playing the bass pedals with his hands. He didn't want to obscure what Gary O'Toole was doing.
Years gone by, just like good wine or wiskey better and better. Watching and listening Steve and his band over and over. More and more realising this kind of music was and is fantastic. Steve, thanks for almost 50 years enyoing you, your band and Genesis from the start. A Dutch fan.
There's more than a hint of early KC in production with Sinfield style lyrics. I once went to a Pete Sinfield gig at Sadlers Wells and outside in the cue to get in was Hackett's band mate Mike Rutherford. (Greg Lake turned up and sat in on a couple of numbers)
Saw this actual Shadow of the Hierophant in Wolverhampton. Steve was amazing on this, of course., and NICK BEGGS in his long frockcoat, white shirt and top hat was a sight to behold as he just stood there hand in pocket, having a serious session on the Taurus Base Pedals. Nothing can replace the base sound of the Taurus pedals for me, which Genesis used, to superb effect, on all of their early albums. Simply amazing! I could watch this video hundreds of times (probably have) and will never tire of it. A truly wonderful evening. Would not have missed it for the World. I will go and see him again when he’s back in the U.K. I believe he’s in the U.S. and Canada at present.
Michael Rutherford played the taurus bass pedals in the original Steve Hackett's album Voyage od the Acolyte and was phenomenal! Nick Beggs is a great artist too and plays the taurus so strongly!!! It certainly would have been a great sound in that theatre
@@musighitta Yes Giusy. I saw Hackett at the Robin Hood in Bilston, West Midlands. Small quite crappy place, but a decent size and the acoustics were solid and brilliant. I also saw him at Wolverhampton Town Hall. The flute and Sax player was superb! Guy in a cap. My first introduction to Genesis was with my purchase of The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway and I was hooked! I LOVE Voyage of the Acolyte. My Brother has a Taurus. He is a Base Player (he’s got 7 base guitars) and plays with Midlands group Flying Colours. I’m an older gal…and still love my Hackett and Genesis. xx
@@Teddibere1 yes you were very lucky to see him in concert. I live in Sardinia in the Mediterranean Sea and Steve composed an album dedicated to my land! My first approach to Genesis was at the end of the 70s with the song many too many, I was a teen age then. But the first album I loved very much was selling England by the pound. The lamb lies down on B. Is a masterpiece I really love it and now I can say that my favourites are the albums of the Gabriel and Hackett era. I think “and then they were three” album is also good, but wind and wuthering and a trick of a tail are amazing. Few times ago I revalued the magnificent album trespass 💓
@@musighitta Awww…Guisy. You mention ALL the Genesis Albums I adore. Some parts on tracks literally bring me to tears!! You must cone to England to see him. He is back in the U.K. Teddy U.K. x
There was an absolutely stunning and mesmerising version of this performed only last night at the London Palladium by Hackett et al.Probably the best song of the evening - despite excellent renditions of Firth of Fifth and Supper's Ready!
I bought Voyage of the Acolyte on the day it was released in the Netherlands. Still a masterpiece and this performance of Shadow.... does justice to an amazing fragile, yet powerful song! And then there's Steve Wilson. Who could ask for more!! :)
this is the only time you see Steve headbanging to a song! saw this show live a couple days ago and Gary O'toole is going insane towards the end, even more intense than this, double bass and different patterns... just mindblowing.
Was there that night and saw this from about 10 feet away, and it was massive. What the video barely shows is that Nick (who'd taken off his Ric as not needed) did a whole 'descent into madness' routine on the bass pedals at the end - clenched fists...face in a rictus..great fun. Saw it all over again at Farnham a few weeks after.
Last night at The Sage Gateshead (22nd Sept. 2022) I saw Steve Hackett and his band perform this as one of the encores following on from Foxtrot in it's entirety - and while it may not have had Steven Wilson joining in, it certainly was an excellent rendition of this track and a fitting way to draw a breathtaking concert to an almost conclusion: then we got Los Endos to send us on our way hoping for the day we see Stave Hackett and his Band once more !!!!

BEST Shadow of The Hierophant version ever!!!
Absolutely magic. I 'm catapulted backwards about 45 years. The world was another...
Thanks so much Steve Hackett & friends!
The best increscendo finale in a prog-rock piece ever written!!!!
Sublime.....la escucho por décadas y sigue elevandome y haciendo brotar lagrimas

Magnifique et magique, merci, Steve, pour ce moment exceptionnel dont tu nous gratifies.🙂
One of the great progressive tracks from a true musical genius of our times. Timeless.
The TRUE BEAUTY of 70s Music. ☺☺
Absolutely Masterpiece !
Great drummer. Gary O'Toole
40 ans après... IMPARABLE !!!
Hackett est un pur génie de la composition progressivo/classique (et jazz quand il s'y met...). Ce type est un joyau !
sa musique est une magnificence
Merci de nous avoir livré et continuer à le faire (les deux derniers cd sont magnifiques), autant de merveilles qui font du bien à nos petites âmes, parfois, perdues.
cancrelas1 c'est pas faux du tout
c'est un GÉNIE
Oui et il y avait aussi d'autres génies dans le groupe...
Tout à fait. Steve Hackett est pour moi le meilleur guitariste de tous les temps.

I like it too beyond comparison .... my first hit in Selling
C'est à pleurer et à tomber par terre. Je l'écoute en boucle tous les jours. Rarement on aura fait morceau aussi génial.
oui... hypnotisant
Amanda you've been awesome !
Another masterpiece from mister Steve ( Stephen... - GENESiS 1970/1971-->1977/1978 ) Hackett and/from his music-universe - Thanx a lot, Steve + Amanda Lehman + Steven Wilson ... :-)
It has been 40 years since I bought this marvelous album.
+wajobu me too!
this is something powerful!
The beautiful simplicity of music at its best. When artists know what they are doing, they transform the whole scene and create a new wonderful world.
Tears of emotion fall when I see Steve Wilson !!! 🥹🥹🥹
Excellent song, just wonderful, thanks Steve and Amanda for the beautiful voice.

Every Day is a sublime song as well.
So it is, thanks Steve
Have been listening to this for thirty years and it just gets better.
Sublime performance of a truly fabulous song.
Ably assisted by Steven Wilson and Nick Beggs🤩🤩🤩
Best live performance of one of the best Hackett pieces ever!! perfect :)
This is absolute perfection.
sublime
Like the smile from steve to steve at 8:45
I saw this in Rome... Wonderful
On of the greatest pieces of Steve ! No doubt !!
That was absolutely epic. Everyone on stage was tearing it up, but in a restrained way that just adds to the drama. Fantastic performance.
Absolument fabuleux. Les larmes aux yeux à chaque écoute.
Chair de poule pour moi
la meilleure performance live de cet instrumental magistral, signé Hackett !!
Je crois aussi
Extraordinaire morceau. Une sublime profondeur mélodique.
absolute beauty
I remenber in the 80's but now it's wonderful to listen....and she put me in paradise...
Great moment of Progressive Rock. Steve Hackett is a very underrated genius.
Am now playing this twice a week(for at least a year)......I must have a problem
Great musicians, Steve and Steve!
Fantastic music,Steve Hackett phenomenal
It's nearly 2am, I've go to be up for work in 4 hours and I can't stop watching SH videos! This is one of the best...
I think we've all been there...
It's 4 o' clock in the morning and I have to get up at 7 but it is imposible stop hearing this gem I just have discovered from this surprising talented man.
Here 3.00 am
Absolutely AMAZING . Thanks Steve , and all the Band for your Great music for all the people of the world
Bravo pour la prestation de la chanteuse (et guitariste) Annette Lehman , c' est un enchantement !
I'm falling in love with Amanda. What a lady, what a voice.
Hubert Van Calenbergh original singer was Sally Oldfield, sister of Mike Oldfield. An even greatest voice.
I prefer this ladies voice @@regis2267
Merci Régis pour cette précision !
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
she is not single
Great. 40 years old and still unreachable
Toujours autant d'émotions, 40 ans plus tard !! absolument sublime !!
What a Masterpiece, Chills !!
Unusual structure of song, harmonies. So symhonic and poetic. Perfect production. I can't stop listening.

Not a suprise of starless base, after jakko vocals. On one high level.
I can't stop watching this it's fantastic !
it ' s a really masterpiece , it's holds for the duration of the song with the chills
Still amazing after all those years
It's being so long I don't listen to this CD. It's really an amazingly beautiful song!
Incroyable montée en puissance !!!

Just one of the bests ever....
Wow; brilliant performance from everyone involved, the finale is truly exhilarating. Oh to have been there!
I was there Tony…rooted to the spot for this performance. Teddy U.K. xx
Incomparable Mr Hackett. En Lima el 15 de marzo de 2018 realizo un concierto que fue una obra maestra. Esperamos otra visita del Maestro.
Totally mesmerizing. Steve still proudly carries the progressive torch, and I hope he will continue to do that for a long time.
Wonderful, I would like to see this show a day in Brazil, with all these wonderful musicians!
Ouro Têxtil Tecidos Finos - saw him in Sampain 2015 - great show - hope he.is back soon - because he didnt do shadow by thdn
Voce tem visto a versao de Fleesh????
This is pure magic
Beautiful ❤️
Absolutely brilliant performance of a truly beautiful song, the final section is out of this world. Thank you x
8:43 Steven Wilson acknowledging one of his heroes..

Perfection!
Oh waouaw, what a pleasure❤, magnifique ❤❤❤❤
Everytime I have seen this live it sends me into a trance. Such a majestic piece of music.
...5:20 i 8:43 Steve and Steven👍❤️😃
Great track! Steve is an example for young guitarists
There was an absolutely stunning and mesmerising version of this performed only last night at the London Palladium by Hackett et al.Probably the best song of the evening - despite excellent renditions of Firth of Fifth and Supper's Ready!
Grande, geniale chitarrista, per me il più grande di sempre , Steve la tua musica e' l'essenza della mia vita, per sempre grande Steve achet
The top hat guy playing the Moog Taurus in the end...
Nick Beggs. Boss man 😎

I bought Voyage of the Acolyte on the day it was released in the Netherlands. Still a masterpiece and this performance of Shadow.... does justice to an amazing fragile, yet powerful song! And then there's Steve Wilson. Who could ask for more!! :)
Pura magia 💜❤
Guau!!! Terrible final clímax! This is pure Hackett!
Amazing! Totally lifted me up.😃😃😃
Ethereal and beautiful piece, a jump backwards towards the first Genesis atmospheres
this is the only time you see Steve headbanging to a song! saw this show live a couple days ago and Gary O'toole is going insane towards the end, even more intense than this, double bass and different patterns... just mindblowing.
