Rob Reed Releases Video For Steve Hackett's Spectral Mornings

04/29/2015
. (Classic Rock) Magenta mastermind Rob Reed has launched a video to accompany Steve Hackett's charity release of Spectral Mornings. It was recorded to support Parkinson's Society UK, featuring Reed and bandmate Christina Booth alongside Big Big Train's David Longdon and Nick D'Virgilio plus Nick Beggs of Steven Wilson's band.

Reed decided to cover Hackett's 1979 solo album title track because he'd always admired the piece. He recently said: "I thought it would be amazing to re-record with the addition of lyrics.

"David wrote them and we did a demo, which sounded fantastic. I had the idea of a duet, so we asked Christina. Steve kindly agreed to play guitar on the track, which was wonderful.

"I really think we have been respectful to the original piece and hopefully brought something new to it as well." Check out the video here.
