A perfect excursion into his recent worksNevertheless you have to be in the habit with the whole unplugged repertoire by Steve, in order to appreciate his recent production more and more. Well in coincidence with the recent 35th Anniversary Tour with Yes (his acoustic material has been very well appreciated at Estival Jazz in Lugano on 8 July 2004),this stuff represents the peek of his long career as a musician and composer too!!You can listen to albums like "Quantum" or "Voyagers" and you can find also some old friends once again,like Max Bacon-ex vocalist by GTR- or Annie Haslam from Renaissance (in the track "It's All over Now, Baby Blue"),without thinking of the collaboration with Geoffrey Downes from Asia (in "Just like a woman"). . . therefore-talking about his music-you might think that he has never become old,despite of his several vicissitudes also as a member of Asia, Yes or GTR,which could have brought him into the wrong way: instead he has always focused his target on a different role, as his purpose is being a classic guitarist with a fine taste and a good sense of melody as well, which can make you forget a few tiring acoustic breaks-through. . . to me that's enough and for sure almost the whole collection is well worth checking out at least: recommended!!.
