What is everyone's favorite Peter Gabriel album? Mine is SO from 1986.

SO! :wave:

I'd say So.

I don't have the earlier albums but I do like "Solsbury Hill", "Games Without Frontiers" and "Shock The Monkey" from 77, 80 and 82 respectively.

SO (1986), the commercial breakthrough, though Shock The Monkey was a hot, funky song.

I've heard of him but i've never heard his music. Naughty By Nature featured him on their Icons cd LOL. I'm surprised they featured him cause i didn't think they liked rock singers.

If you know Third Bass' Pop Goes The Weasel, you know Peter Gabriel's song Sledgehammer, that's where the sample came from.

Louisville huh???

East end? West End? South End?

Hikes Point? Okolona? Valley station? PRP? Middletown? J-Town? Highlands? Portland?

I live near the Okolona area, you?

SO

SO

It's interesting to note that after Peter Gabriel left Genesis in the mid-70's (back when Phil Collins was the drummer and the band was a theatrical prog rock band with Gabriel using various costumes and props), Peter Gabriel would only title his albums by only his name as if they were issues of a magazine--which frustrated his record company until they convinced him to actually use titles.

Does this poll mention his 1983 release "Plays Live" which has "I Go Swimming?"

He as also been very instrumental in promoting World Music with the Womad Festivals and championing human rights.

And why is it hard to think that Naughty By Nature "would use a rock singer"?? There is something a little deeper in his music than just going by the genre of rock. Are r & b fans fearful of anything under the term rock? If I remember correctly, persons of color invented rock and roll. Hard to believe r & b fans are so exclusive of anything else.
