 =-> re: _Voyage of the Acolyte_.....
 CR> It's Hackett's first solo album.  About half of it is very very good,
 CR> but the other half rather annoys me.  _Please Don't Touch_ is more to
 CR> my liking.
   I may have heard _Voyage of the Acolyte_ way back when, because I had
 a friend who was really into Steve Hackett, etc., but I don't recall it.
 I've only got _Please Don't Touch_, and _Spectral Mornings_.
 
 MR> I've also got all the Genesis albums from 1969 to 1980, but after
 MR> _Duke_ the group did nothing for me.
 CR> I like parts of every Genesis album after _Duke_, but _Duke_ is the
 CR> last one that I liked all the way through.  Still, "Dodo/Lurker" from
 CR> _Abacab_ is a favorite of mine as is "Second Home By The Sea" from
 CR> _Genesis_.
   I'll have to give _Abacab_ another listen sometime.  A couple of people
 here have mentioned it.
 CR> ...and "Do The Neurotic" and "Feeding The Fire" from the _Invisible
 CR> Touch_ sessions are good but were released only as B-sides.
   Hmmmm.... well, I don't think I'll be able to get my hands on those any
 time soon so I'll have to take your word for it, Clark!  ;-)
 CR> NP: "Julia" -- The Beatles
 CR> (god, this is gorgeous)
   Yes, I agree!  It's got to be one of the most beautiful songs John ever
 wrote!
    Cheers,
             Martin
