Inspired by the RIP Chris Squire thread, I thought of talking about the Squackett band which involved Chris and Steve Hackett. They have one album from 2012, and which I quite like mainly for two tracks: the Batmanic "Tall Ships" and the one that always makes me cry every time I listen to it - "Aliens" ("aliens are only us from the future").
The overall sound of this album shows how close could Yes and Genesis sometimes be.

Re: Squackett
The vocals killed this for me.The music is really good, but I can't stand the vocals.

Re: Squackett
Somehow, the vocals like this are quite common in prog-rock. I like them, though, just saying.
