"Steve why did you decide to quit Genesis?"
"Would you like to see a reunion?

I'd like to hear Steve give an in-depth opinion on why he thinks prog is bigger in Europe or certain countries. Like why Genesis were massive in Italy and leading current prog bands like Archive being massive in Greece!

Yes, I would much rather hear Hackett comment on the future of prog, rather than its past...

That was a nice interview.
 
He seemed a lot more relaxed than the last time he was interviewed on TV (a few years ago on a regional TV programme)
 
Bill Turnbull is obviously a fan.

Good interview!  For a morning show, anyway.  Seems much more tolerable than the morning shows we have here in the US.

Somewhat forced smiling from Steve at times was a little odd perhaps showing that even aged experienced proggers can feel a little 'awkward' in such situations. Great to hear him play a bit of Blood On The Rooftops and managed to avoid the trap set by Bill Turnbull when he explained the last full Genesis reunion was to save WOMAD. So Peter owes you then? Nope I owe Peter for getting me the gig in Genesis in the first place. All very nice ,polite and friendly.Thats prog!

So, I thought I heard Hackett saying that he'll be touring the Genesis Revisited material? If so, please, come to Mexico. I'd much rather see this show than see Peter Gabriel or Genesis on tour again (unless it was Genesis with at least Hackett back).

She was certainly impressed with his manual dexterity I could tell...........

Mainly, I don't know his solo career, and if he tours (which I think he might) he would tour mostly songs that I don't know, while Hackett would be touring with Genesis songs, which I would really like to hear live. Besides, I never really liked Gabriel's singing so much, while I do like Hacketts playing a lot.

She didn't seem to care much. The other host, however, seemed genuinely enthusiastic.

Actually, you do. Hackett's drummer, Gary O'Toole, sings live and on the new album, and he is very good.

The whole Hackett band are great, there is nobody I'd rather see, I saw my 4th fave band Radiohead in between Steve shows and Hackett blew them out of the water. 

Hackett can sing and has a great tone after his awful 80's style. Live he sounds like he's miming!

It's all about opinions - I suppose but the fact that Hackett's band blew RH out of  the water is due to the fact that Hackett's band of experienced musicians are all in a different class than those of RH.....LOL

Yes that and the fact I didn't feel any connection between the audience and the fans. Also Thom Yorke seemed to have the talented Jonny Greenwood on a leash, proper Vernon Wells style. I desperately wanted to see the axe wielded.

Well, if your intake of calories > than the amount of work done - then you become a rotund fellow - a bit like Mr Squire in that picture.....A Factual remark is it not?
I'll bet it's bloody murder in yout house - trying to comment about something without it being construed as un-politically correct - best go and live in a Trappist Monastery......

I already saw the video on Hackett's site. Nice that he was on the show.

Interesting that Steve said that the recording of classic Genesis albums was rushed. 
Think about it... a lot of those '70's records that we consider as classic albums, were recorded quite quickly.
Those were good days, masterpieces being made in between tours.
I'm not too crazy about "revisiting" - cd's, but it's nice that at least one Genesis member treats the old material with such respect, and takes time to look back on them.
(Of course, the remasters of the old Genesis albums was also quite a good idea. There so much more details of the music to be heard in them.)
