The Tokyo Tapes Steve Hackett
"What would is sound like if occasional members of GENESIS, KING CRIMSON, ASIA, YES, ZAPPA & WEATHER REPORT all got together to form a unique team just for one night ?"

Steve Hackett found out by assembling this diverse and highly respected group of musicians to storm through a selection of classic material from their collective back catalogues including "Watcher of The Skies", "Firth of Fifth", "Los Endos", "Court of the Crimson King", "Heat of the Moment" and many many others.
