. Genesis star Steve Hackett is giving fans a full listen to his new album, Genesis Revisited II, ahead of its release next week.

The double album is set to hit stores next Tuesday, October 22nd, but you can listen to it in full online here.

We were sent these details about the album: The set features reinterpreted Genesis classics from the period dearest to Hackett, the "golden era" 1971-1977, with a stellar array of guest performers.

While making sure the spirit of the timeless originals stayed intact, Hackett enlisted the help of 35 special guests to provide the songs with a new unique edge. The star-studded line-up includes respected vocalists Steven Wilson (Porcupine Tree), Mikael Akerfeldt (Opeth), Simon Collins (Phil Collins' son), Amanda Lehmann, Conrad Keely, Francis Dunnery, Neal Morse, John Wetton, Nad Sylvan and Nik Kershaw. Steve Rothery of Marillion and Roine Stolt of The Flower Kings and Transatlantic join in to share guitar duties, while Jeremy Stacey and Gary O'Toole are amongst the chosen drummers.
