Peter Gabriel

I have to admit that I’ve never liked orchestrated versions of pop songs. As far as I’m concerned it’s usually one step removed from Muzak–pop music for people who don’t like pop music. Even worse, as far as I’m concerned, are those times when some performer starts taking themselves way too seriously and decides to use orchestral elements in their music. The results are usually god-awful as they simply don’t have the talent to make it work, The smarter ones will hire somebody else to do the...Read Full Story

Photos by G. Peter Gabriel - Live On Letterman Here’s something you don’t get to see every day – Peter Gabriel performing with a 46 piece orchestra inside the Ed Sullivan Theater in New York, the same place that the Beatles and the Doors played years earlier, for an hour long webcast for Live On Letterman on November 9, 2011.  I won tickets through a contest from the ultra awesome site A Heart is a Spade , and I’d like to take a moment to get on my knees and say THANK YOU! Peter Gabriel...Read Full Story

Photo by G. Peter Gabriel and Geoffrey Dicker I don’t know what to say about Peter Gabriel other than he is one of my music gods.  I’ve had more good times to his music than I can even say.  When I first heard his album “3” (aka “Melt” aka “Peter Gabriel”), with a little help from my friends, I can truly say that my life was changed that night.  Songs like “Here Comes the Flood,” I can listen to endlessly (and have) and of course, his music videos such as “Sledgehammer” and “Big Time...Read Full Story

Peter Gabriel – Solsbury Hill + lyrics Lyrics : Climbing up on Solsbury Hill I could see the city light Wind was blowing, time stood still Eagle flew out of the night He was something to observe Came in close, I heard a voice Standing stretching every nerve I had to listen had no choice I did not believe the information Just had to trust imagination My heart going boom boom, boom “Son,” he said, “Grab your things, I’ve come to take you home.” To keeping silence I resigned My friends...Read Full Story

Peter Gabriel , the former early Genesis singer and acclaimed '70s and onward solo artist, has orchestrated many of his well-known hits in the new CD-DVD " New Blood ". The collection features... "re-imagined arrangements of many of Peter’s songs which dispense with the traditional weapons of the rock armoury – no guitar, or drum kits – the lyrics are exposed and laid bare, often taking new meaning with the passing of the years." I like that. I think songs that were written with original...Read Full Story
