The Special Edition of Steve's new studio album Wild Orchids containing 4 extra tracks!

These are the 192 kbps MP3 files for instant download - if you would like to order the CD please head to the Steve Hackett CD section

After 2003’s acclaimed rock album To Watch The Storms and its classical successor Metamorpheus from 2005, Steve now presents Wild Orchids, an album that is in many ways a synthesis of its predecessors

Steve surpasses even the diversity of style and mood found on Storms and at the same time presents an even more homogenous album

"Each album is an adventure. A search for a place without boundaries where cultures collide in order to influence one another..."

The album integrates a classical element on a much grander scale than ever before. But is it still rock? As Steve says, “Rock gets 'bigger' when you add an orchestra” and this is exactly what he did!

In addition to regular Hackett 'acolytes' Roger King, John Hackett, Rob Townsend, Gary O’Toole and others who previously contributed to Storms, Steve also utilised his Underworld Orchestra, with whom he recorded Metamorpheus

"The Orchid is famous as a cultivated flower, but when grown in the wild the perfume seems stronger and sweeter…"

Special Edition Features:
4 extra tracks (compared to standard edition)

Camino tracks are standard MP3 files that are compatible with all computers, ipods and MP3 players (unlike AAC format (with Fairplay DRM) offered on iTunes or Microsoft’s WMA format)

The files will appear as a zip archive (wildorchidsse.zip) - please unzip and then place the mp3 files in your desired location on your computer.

Unlike other services, Camino does not require you to install any proprietary software.

Camino MP3 tracks are very high quality, encoded with the renowned codec LAME using the 192 Bit Rate setting. The LAME encoder is widely acknowledged to give the best sound quality while maintaining manageable file sizes.

Finally, Camino files have no ‘DRM’ or copy protection built in. We believe that most people like to be treated as customers and not potential criminals - DRM is easily circumvented and just puts obstacles in the way of enjoying music.

Buying music through Camino rather than illegal networks means that you are supporting the artists, and you are getting music encoded by the artists themselves. All your purchased files are correctly tagged and labelled with as much information as possible, and are the real deal! Unlike the huge amount of fakes on the illegal networks.
