Recorded live in concert on Steve's 1996 Genesis Revisited Tour of Japan, The Tokyo Tapes highlights some of Hackett's own solo material along side new interpretations of Genesis classics written while he was with the band. Unlike the 1999 Asian pressing of this DVD (called Steve Hackett & Friends - Live In Japan) on Panorama Music Video, the new Camino issue features 18 minutes of unreleased rehearsal footage. Hackett's line-up on this tour is among my favorites of his touring bands.

SALTATIO MORTIS surprise us with a new and exciting acoustic record! After their current record `Zirkus Zeitgeist´ immediately reached the top of the German album charts, the eight musicians from southern Germany didn't rest on their laurels.Still, `Zirkus Zeitgeist - Ohne Strom und Stecker´, to be released on November 27, doesn't present an “old” sound, but is rather the product of eight musicians who have reached their modern sound and, after 15 years of experience, reinterpret their songs from `Zirkus Zeitgeist´. The acoustic versions of the songs sound intimate and, every once in a while, there's also a big portion of fun. You can hear SALTATIO MORTIS' love for acoustic instruments and the characteristic twinkle in their eyes quite literally in every single note. And that's not all! With `Willkommen in der Weihnachtszeit´ (“Welcome to Christmas time”) and `Maria´ it sounded like Yuletide already this summer. On the limited deluxe edition of `Zirkus Zeitgeist - Ohne Strom und Stecker´, the band put together a festive bonus CD entitled `Fest der Liebe´ (“Feast of Love”)! With four new Christmassy songs they will sweeten the holiday season in their very own way: Christmas with bagpipes, e-guitars and snappy lyrics – ho, ho, ho!

This Real Gone Music reissue in association with SoulMusic Records marks the worldwide CD debut for both albums, featuring liner notes by noted American journalist Rashod Ollison.
