Genesis of rivalry is still there says guitarist Steve Hackett
THE summer of Genesis is nearly upon us. Phil Collins, the group’s sometime singer, has come out of retirement and will headline the Aviva Stadium in June. On the support bill is his old bandmate Mike Rutherford, with his Mike and the Mechanics project.
Next month, meanwhile, Genesis ex-guitarist Steve Hackett marks the 40th anniversary of the band’s Wind and Wuthering album — and of his departure from the ranks — with a concert at Dublin’s Vicar Street. For fans of 1970s progressive rock these are heady days indeed.
