In my opinion Genesis died after one album after Steve left. He was the heart of Genesis and is the only one still going strong, with a discography larger than the rest combined.
Wonder why this version of his band broke up after this. Only half the songs on Spectral and Defector had vocals so not much for Pete Hicks to do. I love both albums. I tend to lean toward Defector but my biggest complaint is that the vocals are a lot harder to understand than on Spectral for some reason. I only get it when I read the lyrics. Maybe too much vocal reverb, but also the sonic space where the vocals sit seem to have a lot of keys in the same frequency making it a bit muddled. The remaster didn't seem to fix this.
Love Stevie. And Hate him! He's a brilliant guitarist and composer. He's rich and good looking. And he's a really nice guy! How frustrating is that for an ugly, untalented, poor prick like me?!
This bowled me over with its fun and power when first I heard it back in the 80s. It still makes me smile
Hackett does disco. Brilliant.
Used to listen to this in the back of my moms chevy driving through Cairo in the 90s
How about that.

I actually do like this song
Yo ví este video en 1981 en el programa Música Genial de canal 5 en Montevideo
Great Stevie.
Intro sounds like Help is on it's way by Little River Band!🤔🙂
Should have been released as a single in the UK charts. It would have made at least the Top 40.
It was and it didn't.
@@mikeMCSG At least the excellent Cell 151 made it into the charts.
@@DDaSilva1980 Can't find this video any more on youtube
@@DDaSilva1980I've always wondered whether Cell 151 was Steve showing his former bandmates how Abacab may have sounded had he been involved.
Steve, I love this. I can hear the GENESIS influence. Your sense of humor is spot on.
Beautiful song of Steve. The style reminds me of Boz Scaggs
Love it.
Temazo!!!!!!!!!
Steve Hackett making a 3-4 minute pop song that I like more than Genesis' 3-4 minute pop songs
Genesis did some good stuff too. Mama and Land Of Confusion.
@@DDaSilva1980 Turn It On Again... Misunderstanding.... Follow You, Follow Me....Invisible Touche´....you get the picture.

Totally with you on that!
He isnt that rich. PHIL Collins is xd
He's far from rich by the looks of his latest video for "Wingbeats", it's hilarious cheesy.
