Former member of Genesis (early 1970s to 1977). Solo debut Voyage of the Acolyte (1975). Active solo career across progressive rock, classical and world-influenced albums.

DeBaser reviews present Steve Hackett as a prolific, exploratory guitarist rooted in progressive rock and classical guitar. Critics praise signature albums (Voyage of the Acolyte, Spectral Mornings, Metamorpheus) and strong live performances. Occasional criticism appears for stylistic detours (notably a blues album and some pop-leaning releases).

Notable Quotes

❝ In conclusion, an exceptional double album, highly recommended to all fans of this musical genre. A progressive greeting to everyone.
❝ Metamorpheus is a timeless masterpiece, the ideal follow-up to the previous work "A midsummer night's dream".
❝ He cannot create that kind of nuance, that atmosphere that is the essence of blues.
