Latest Peter Gabriel


Anybody listenening to this? I got it yesterday and am listening for the first time as I type this. Unmistakably Gabriel, to be sure - what a great voice. The recording is nice, but so far doesn't seem remarkable. -Kirk

I am also at the early stages of listening to this record.
I agree I think the production is superb.
I think this is a very interesting record most of the arrangements and song structures are quite unusual in a subtle way.
I am pleasantly surpirsed after Us which I thought was very much a bad attempt to recreate the So album.
It may be more moody but it sounds a whole lot fresher than Us.
A little late to post this, but...
I consider this album one of the 10 best audiophile recordings of all time. The imaging is spooky - wrap around effects in stereo! Amazing bass extension, and deep, deep sound staging. It helps of course that the music is from one of the most artistic performers in popular music. Yes, the subject matter is dark, but no one complains about Kafka, right!

Enjoy.
I know, I know. By the time I found out about it, it was too late (sigh). Both the album and the tour have been poorly marketed. Did you know you can pre-order the Secret World concert on DVD from Amazon now? We can only hope it won't take 10 years for the UP tour to make it to DVD as well.
