Steve-Hackett - Genesis Revisited II
Steve Hackett About Dancing With The Moonlit Knight "This Is Possibly My Favourite Genesis Song With Influences Ranging From Scottish Plainsong To Fusion... Elgar Meets Brave New World. It Epitomises The Character And Magic Of Early Genesis. It Features Tapping Nylon And Twelve Strings. Jeremy Stacey's Drums Give This Version Even More Precision. The "Disney" Section At The End Has An English Pastoral Hypnotic Feel - A Thread To The World Of Spencer's Fairy Queen - A Small Corner Of England Remaining While The Rest Is Sold Off As A Job Lot Plunging Headlong Into An Alienated Future. In This Version I Started This Piece With The Beginning Of Greensleeves To Give A Sense Of The Old English Thread And The Poignancy Of The Song Which Francis Dunnery's Sensitive Vocal Also Expresses."
