CD Description
In May 2007 the trio enthralled audiences with original Steve Howe compositions, jazz, blues, solo guitar and Yes numbers, all specially arranged for trio format. For nearly 40 years, Steve Howe has been at the forefront of rock music as a model and inspiration for other guitarists and musicians, perhaps best known as a member of the progressive rock group Yes and latterly in the reformed Asia. Steve's new trio project with his son Dylan Howe, rightly acclaimed as one of the best drummers of his generation, and keyboard maestro Ross Stanley on Hammond organ, 'The Haunted Melody' is in marked contrast to his previous work and this truly masterful combination has now been immortalised on CD. The album creates a friendly tension between Steve Howe's compositions and Yes lineage and the hard bop jazz of Dylan Howe and Ross Stanley.
