Persons
Steve Hackett abandoned his plans for a career as a harmonica player
when he joined Genesis in late 1971. His complex and distinctive playing
became an inspiration to many aspiring musicians and was an
unmistakable trademark of the 'classic' Genesis line-up. He has since
achieved consistent solo success internationally and is perhaps unique
in earning the admiration of both rock contemporaries and leading
classical players.
Graham Kempster trained as an illustrator, but had two great passions - photography and guitars. While photography became his profession, guitars and acoustic music have remained a lifelong interest. His first serious guitar was an Epiphone Texan, but Martin guitars have always been the preferred instruments, a 000-28 being the current favourite.
