Review by Paul Monkhouse for MPM
Few people understand the transformative power and effect of music as well as Steve Hackett.
Carving out a hugely acclaimed solo career since leaving the mothership of Genesis some four decades ago, the guitarist has displayed his prodigious talent in both rock and classically influenced circles, his skill with a six string positioning him at the forefront of a starry field.
As if spirited away on a magic carpet, this new single instantly shifts the listener to the warmth and breathtaking vistas of its titular Spanish climes.
Exquisitely played, this beautiful and atmospheric acoustic piece is not just an outstanding display of Hackett’s craft but a much needed and longed for oasis of peace and tranquility in a world that needs healing.
Put your headphones on, press play and feel the sun on your face.
