Shaking the Tree: Sixteen Golden Greats (1990) more music like this

by Peter Gabriel

Greatest-hits albums are a traditional way of buying time for artists between albums. Peter Gabriel's, entitled Shaking the Tree: Sixteen Golden Greats, arrived in December of 1990, as he was toiling away at the follow-up to his smash So, which was four years old at that point. As greatest-hits albums go, it's pretty good, containing all the hits, ...

Security (1982) more music like this

by Peter Gabriel

Security -- which was titled Peter Gabriel everywhere outside of the U.S. -- continues where the third Gabriel album left off, sharing some of the same dense production and sense of cohesion, yet lightening the atmosphere and expanding the sonic palette somewhat. The gloom that permeates the third album has been alleviated and while this is still ...

Plays Live (1983) more music like this

by Peter Gabriel

Although he had thrived on live performance as a member of Genesis, Peter Gabriel waited until he was four albums and six years deep into his solo career -- with the hit album Security and the Top 40 "Shock the Monkey" chalked up to his credit -- before he took the plunge into concert recording with this album. Released as a double-LP and two-CD ...

Hit (2003) more music like this

by Peter Gabriel

Peter Gabriel's work doesn't lend itself easily to compilations -- not because he didn't cut singles, since he made many terrific stand-alone singles, but because his body of work is so idiosyncratic, even contradictory, that it's possible to have perfectly valid differing perspectives on his catalog. This results in differing opinions among fans, ...

Security [Germany] (1982) more music like this

by Peter Gabriel

Why Peter Gabriel chose to release two of his solo albums -- his 1980 release and its 1982 follow-up (also known as Security) -- in versions with all-German lyrics can only be explained by his notorious quirkiness and desire to make his music as universal as possible. After being dropped by Atlantic in 1979, he decided to focus his energies on ...

SOS Planet Earth (2003) more music like this

by Various Artists

A label that calls itself Narada World wouldn't truly be global minded if it didn't show concern about the future of the planet, would it? The charity element alone should draw attention to this all-star gathering of mostly previously released tracks, whose royalties are allocated to several foundations working to bring relief to deprived peoples ...

Security [Japan] (2004) more music like this

by Peter Gabriel

A mass of dense rhythms and patterns, the fourth Peter Gabriel LP traveled as far from the bright pastures of its predecessor, as the second had from the first, and it paid the price among the critics. Reviews were tough, sales were patchy, and even hardcore fans confessed their disappointment. If Gabriel's all-conquering third album had any ...

Leaves From the Tree: A Tribute to Peter Gabriel (2002) more music like this

by Various Artists

Leaves From the Tree is probably the best name for a Peter Gabriel tribute album, since Shaking the Tree was already used by Gabriel himself. But unlike most of Vitamin's tribute collections, which usually feature the work of studio musicians or unknowns, Leaves From the Tree includes a few name-brand electronic artists. Mutantrumpter Ben Neill ...
