Description:
Hackett's amazing new album, carved from the rocks of personal and
professional upheaval, stands as a testimony to the prevailing spirit
of great musicians. Positive, reflective, vast and intimate, Out Of The
Tunnel's Mouth is a universe of sound and emotion; from the trickling,
music-box verse of opener Fire On The Moon to the thundering ensemble
drumming of the finale, Last Train To Istanbul.
The Special Edition, a 3-pane digipack includes a
second disc featuring live recordings from Steve’s sell out
tour of Italy in the summer of 2009 and the brand new studio track Every
Star In The Night Sky, plus an extended booklet with
spectacular live photos by Ben Fenner.
Steve will sign every copy.
