This is a great album and IMHO a better album than Hackett's 'Spectral
Mornings', the stand out tracks for me are 'Somebody Else's Dream' and
'The Waters of Lethe'.

Does anyone have any information about Kim Beacon, Wikipedia have an
article about String Driven Thing, but doesn't have much information
about Kim, and Google doesn't seem to bring much up about him.

No, you're thinking of 'The Fugitive' :)

Actually it's better than both 'Please Don't Touch' AND 'Spectral
Mornings' (although I think 'Spectral Mornings' is a good album).

Nope, I'm thinking of "A Curious Feeling".

Shame the album is not available on iTunes, although the 'For A While'
single is.

Oh well off to Amazon then...
