GTR (album) GTR (album) GTR is the 1986 self-titled debut album and sole official studio release from the short-lived supergroup GTR. The album peaked at No. 11 on the "Billboard" 200 chart, and the single "When the Heart Rules the Mind" reached No. 14 on the "Billboard" Hot 100 singles chart. Another single, "The Hunter", peaked at No. 85. The instrumental piece by Steve Howe, "Sketches in the Sun", resurfaced on his solo album "Motif Volume 1" and again on his "Anthology" album. Steve Hackett's "Hackett to Bits" was a simplified version of the title track from his "Please Don't Touch" album.
From Genesis to Revelation worked, and the group began to write at a faster pace. The band recruited fellow Charterhouse pupil John Silver on the drums, and wrote and rehearsed their new material at his parents' country home in Oxford and the parents of school friend David Thomas. In August 1968, during the school summer holidays, the band returned to Regent Sound studio 2 to record "From Genesis to Revelation". The music was recorded within two days, and the album was put together in ten. King was the producer and brought in former Charterhouse pupil Tom Allom, along with Brian Roberts, as recording engineers.
