In repsponse to some questions:
	1) Steve Hackett's new acoustic album is called "Bay of Kings".
	   I don't think it's available domestically.  I have it
	   on Lamborghini Records (LMG LP 3000).
	2) The next most recent album is called "Highly Strung".
	   I got it as an import, but it later became available 
	   domestically.
	3) One of the songs on Highly Strung had been previously
	   issued a single.  I think it's Cell 151.
	   Anyway, the flip side is a live version of "The Air-Conditioned
	   Nightmare".  Has anyone heard it?

	4) I read an article where Peter Gabriel says that "Shock the
	   Monkey" is about jealousy.  He goes on to say that maybe
	   he should have made it clearer but that he doesn't think
	   that lyrics are less important to him now anyway.
	5) I believe "Wall Flower" is about the political kidnappings
	   in South America.
	6) When I saw him, he said that San Jacinto had something to do
	   with an Indian ritual of leaving you on a mountain with
	   a rattlesnake to demonstrate that you're a man.
