It features notes, tablatures, and chords. While carefully transcribing his music, Paulo De Carvalho had the privilege of asking Steve in person questions about fingerings, chord shapes, techniques, timbre, and musical gears that he used. Steve carefully revised the information added to the book. Because of that, the present songbook contains authentic transcriptions. The book stresses Steve's techniques, explained in details. It also evidences through charts the instruments and gears Steve used in each album chosen by the author. The result points directly to his unique and distinguished sound - as per the title of the songbook. Besides the discussions with Steve, the sources were based on communications with people that had worked directly for, and with Steve. These included: Jo Hackett, John Hackett, Amanda Lehmann, Pete Cornish, and Richard Buckland. The work includes unpublished photographs of Steve's hands on the guitar showing details of his techniques. You will also find numerous unpublished photos of Steve's original instruments and pedalboards, all taken by the author. This book is about the music that has shaped the legendary Steve Hackett. Above all, it is about Steve's sound. Songs transcribed: Ace of Wands, Black Light, Hands of the Priestess, Part I, How Can I?, Love Song to a Vampire, Narnia, Spectral Mornings, Shadow of the Hierophant, A Tower Struck Down and much more.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Steve Hackett\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0692854347\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780692854341\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Paulo de Carvalho\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/18\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 168\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.89lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.02h x 8.50w x 0.36d","brand":"Steve Hackett","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43987363365119,"sku":"9780692854341","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8b5f74c1-0f9c-431a-91b0-390ca28688c3.jpg?v=1683288542","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-sound-of-steve-hackett-steve-hackett-9780692854341","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
