Sounds pretty damn awesome.

Chris Squire reports that he's also started a new venture with former Genesis guitarist Steve Hackett -- "We may call it Squackett," the bassist quips -- that will be released in early 2009, with European dates in the spring.

"We're nearly 75 percent done," Squire says. "It's real good. Steve Hackett is a very underrated writer and actually a very good singer. We're doing a lot of harmonizing, and some of it is almost in the Crosby, Stills & Nash vein."


Neat, I'll be there, I'll be there, I will be there, buying the album at least. Big%20smile

Hackett and Squire, an interesting combination we haven't seen before.  Hackett and Howe didn't turn out so well, but then they were trying for commercial success.  Not in their musical nature, I suspect.  I think at this point in time H & S may be embracing prog with their venture....

And I don't think Hackett has ever worked with as strong of a bass player as Squire.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...
