PETER GABRIEL

* RETROSPECTIVE (75-88)

1975-1988     CD(r)        9        Miscel.

A collection of miscellaneous live tracks. All in very good sound quality.
The ´Sledgehammer´ track is a bit mixed up. It starts with the song and is interrupted with the last part of ´Modern Love´ and then starts again (from the beginning) with ´Sledgehammer´ but then it cuts out.
´Biko´ is with Youssou D´Nour.

Tracks:
Europe '75:Watcher Of The Skies / The Carpet Crawlers / In The Cage
New York, '78: On The Air / D.I.Y. / Solsbury Hill / The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway
LA, '78: Here Comes the Flood / Modern Love
Europe '88:Sledgehammer  (with cuts)
USA '88: Biko

* LOS ANGELES (77)

1977     TAPE(?gen)     8.5-9     The Roxy, LA

Sound is actually pretty good (taken from an FM recording) but unfortunately it is plagued by some static. Not that bad but at the softer parts it is obviously present. Still a very enjoyable tape of a pretty early Gabriel solo show. There's some nice chatting by Peter Gabriel in between some songs.
