Djabe & Steve Hackett: Early live album to be rereleased

Steve Hackett and Djabe have been touring together since 2008. The live album In The Footsteps Of Attila And Genghis was recorded in the summer of 2010 during their August tour. The concert series reached Russia, Hungary, Bulgaria and Serbia, in chronological order.

Djabe classics (Distant Dance, Clouds Dance, Butterfly, Doromb, Erdo erdo, Scenes, Wind And Bell, Dark Soupetc.), Steve Hackett’s own compositions (The Steppes, Last Train To Istanbul, Horizons, Ace Of Wands etc.), and Genesis instrumental tracks (Firth Of Fifth, In That Quiet Earth, Los Endos) were also featured in the shows.

One of the album’s most exciting recordings is Steve Hackett’s Last Train to Istanbul, a song from the album Out of the Tunnel’s Mouth, which he didn’t even play live with his own band.

For this 2022 release, compared to the original album of 2011, 6 additional bonus tracks have been added, approximately 40 minutes of unreleased material from the tour.
