GTR / 2CD Deluxe Edition

Steve Howe formed short-lived rock band GTR with guitarist Steve Hackett in 1985, after his departure from ASIA.

With vocalist Max Bacon, bassist Phil Spalding and drummer Jonathan Mover they recorded the self-titled, Geoff Downes produced album, which was issued in 1986. There was never a follow-up, but the band did tour and this newly remastered double-disc deluxe edition from Esoteric Recordings features 14 tracks performed live in Los Angeles in 1986 on the second CD.

Three bonus tracks append the 10-track album on disc one, all taken from promotional 12-inch singles of When the Heart Rules the Mind and The Hunter. Two of these are new to CD.

GTR is reissued on 28 August 2015.
