Peter Gabriel (2)

VINYL FORMAT. The pairing is ideal - the former front man of Genesis, as produced by the leading light of King Crimson. On this, Peter Gabriel's second (scratching face) album, the songs "On the Air" and "D.I.Y." are stunning slices of modern rock circa 1978, bubbling with synths, insistent rhythms, and polished processed guitars, all enclosed in a streamlined production that nevertheless sounds as large as a stadium. Other tunes include "A Wonderful Day In A One-Way World", "White Shadow," "Animal Magic," the tense yet catchy "Perspective," and the reflective closer "Home Sweet Home". Transferred from Gabriel's personal master tapes.
