Hackett. Steve - The Night Siren (2017)

The 25th album from this artist from Great Britain.

Steve Hacket contributed with oud, charango, sitar, guitars, harmonica and vocals.

Numerous guests added drums, percussion, bass, uillean pipes, strings, woodwinds, keyboards and vocals.

Steve Hackett has in the last years changed between his solo career and tours where he has been playing his old Genesis songs. That in addition to playing on other artists albums. He has so far contributed on more than one hundred albums. 

His solo albums is a mix of rock and neo-classical albums. Some of the albums has not been rock albums at all. 

The Night Siren is a mix of rock and neo-classical music. It is a typical Steve Hackett album. There is a lot of musicals influenced progressive rock here. The vocals is really good. Ditto for the guitars. Steve Hackett found his formula decades ago and this album is in that formula.

The music on this album is fairly good. Steve Hackett's vocal and guitars elevates this album a couple of notches. Hence, this is a good album but not a remarkable album. Steve Hackett can do better.
