For almost 40 years now, Steve Hackett has been one of the most innovative artists on acoustic and electric guitar. His technique came to be known as landmark in the musical business and influenced rock giants like the original Genesis formation, among others. As a solo artist, he skillfully moves between various musical spheres of refined rock music. After the release of his classical album Metamorpheus, he again has produced in Wild Orchids a real rock album that bursts with experimentalism, playfulness and vigour and shines with it's jazzy and folky elements. The unique artwork, which is quite characteristic for all Hackett's works, derives it's ideas entirely from Kim Poor, his wife.
