"Blues With A Feeling" is former Genesis guitarist Steve Hackett's first full foray into playing solid blues. Besides showing off his brilliant guitar playing, Hackett also plays a mean harmonica and displays superb vocals (similar to David Gilmour).
The CD is a 12-track collection of Blues standards and Hackett originals. Only the track "Big Dallas Sky" steps away from the Blues to show off Steve's trademark progressive rock style. All in all, this a solid collection of great Blues music from the one and only Steve Hackett.
The enhanced portion of this CD includes 22 full length MP3 files. 18 of these MP3's are by Steve Hackett with two each from Chester Thompson and former King Crimson and Foreigner member Ian McDonald. If you own a computer, it's like having a whole other album in addition to "Blues With a Feeling".
Great album from one of the greats.

....with a feeling is the understatement of all time. Steve's take of the blues is a breath of fresh air and if you can this rare CD, get it if you are a guitar fan, period.

Steve Hackett show his talent and ability with this CD. He was a experianced Harp player before he joined Genesis, and He showcases his ability here with this CD.

The Title track is a wonderful sonic experiance, soulful guitar, blistering Harp and Steve's vastly improving vocals. If you like Blues, like Gary Moore and Snowy White add this to you collection...
