After three eponymous discs noteworthy for their thematic richness and musical experimentation, Peter Gabriel yielded to conventional wisdom by actually titling this 1982 successor. In every other respect, however, Security was another stride beyond the progressive rock terrain Gabriel had explored from Genesis forward. Most crucially, he goes deeper into the heart of world music, and further investigates the African sources first invoked on the prior album's magisterial track, "Biko." …

Nearly a full decade after the release of Us, Peter Gabriel finally returned with new music in the summer of 2002 – but it wasn't a new studio album, it was the soundtrack to Phillip Noyce's return to independent Australian cinema, Rabbit-Proof Fence. The film tells the true story of three Aboriginal girls who make a return to their home after being abducted by the government to serve as domestic help to a white family in 1931; as they make their journey through the Outback to their home, they follow the Rabbit-Proof Fence, which was constructed to separate Aborigines from white settlers.

"Peter Gabriel" is the second solo album by the British singer-songwriter Peter Gabriel, released in 1978. The album is the second of four with the same eponymous title. Guitarist Robert Fripp served as producer, whose influence on the album is evident in the use of Frippertronics on the track "Exposure." The album did not sell as well as the first Peter Gabriel, but reached #10 on the UK charts. "Mother of Violence" was written by Peter and his first wife Jill Gabriel.

This spectacular live concert, filmed at London’s O2 using the latest Ultra High Definition 4K technology, captures Peter Gabriel’s celebration of the 25th anniversary of his landmark album “So”.

"The Barry Williams Show" was nominated for the 2003 Grammy Awards for Best Male Rock Vocal Performance.

Though much effort has obviously been put into the sonic details of UP's production, and to fine effect, the album seems to represent not so much a new direction for Peter Gabriel, but rather a consolidation of the styles he's mined in preceding years. For instance, the opening track "Darkness" combines the dark, tension-filled paranoia of Gabriel's third self-titled album with the positive, seemingly therapy-derived lyrical direction of US's "Digging in the Dirt." Similarly, the heartworn emotionality of "No Way Out" brings to mind US's "Red Rain," but adds some slinky spy-movie guitar lines.

With a decade passing since his last album of new songs, Gabriel clearly has much to say, and accordingly most tracks hover around the seven-minute mark and are filled with sophisticated, enticing touches in an agreeable electronic/organic blend. With nothing to prove anymore, Gabriel sounds appropriately unconcerned about commerciality, as the only thing that comes within shouting distance of an "accessible" track is the TV-sensationalism parody "The Barry Williams Show," whose length and gritty lyrics make it an unlikely candidate for the top 40. In the end, UP is the sound of a mature artist pursuing the perfection of his craft, giving little thought to anything but the realization of his distinctive artistic vision.

To mark its 25th anniversary, Peter Gabriel set out on a tour which would see him play his classic 1986 breakthrough album So in its entirety for first time. The So album was Gabriel's bold leap from the experimental margins into the mainstream and benchmark of intelligent avant-garde pop music.

"Peter Gabriel" is the first studio album by British singer, musician and songwriter Peter Gabriel, and the first of four with the same eponymous title. Released on February 25, 1977, it was produced by Bob Ezrin. Gabriel and Ezrin assembled a team of talented musicians, including Robert Fripp of King Crimson, to record the album. Upon the album's release, Gabriel began touring with a seven-piece band under his own name.

Ein deutsches album (English: A German album), released in July 1980, is a German language version of Peter Gabriel's third album, Peter Gabriel (1980). The record was released in Germany two months after the standard English language version. The German market was given a foretaste of the album with a February 1980 single that likewise contained German language versions of "Games Without Frontiers" and "Here Comes the Flood."
The main difference between ein deutsches album and the international version of Peter Gabriel is mainly that Gabriel redid all of his vocals in German. Since the vocals were overdubbed on top of the instrumental and backing vocal tracks, there are few other differences. However, alternate takes of some of the instruments seem to have been used occasionally, and the mix is somewhat different.
The German lyrics are more or less straight translations from the English. Two years later, Gabriel released deutsches album (1982), a significantly altered version of his fourth album Peter Gabriel (1982) (Security in North America).
The vinyl and CD versions do contain one minor anomaly, in that "Start" (the third track of the English language version) became the beginning of the German version of "I Don't Remember," rather than simply being the track that preceded it. Consequently, "Frag mich nicht immer" has the playing time of "Start" plus "I Don't Remember" from the English language version. In addition, the African song sung at the beginning and end of "Biko" is different from the English language version. The background vocals in "Biko" are different with an added, very noticeable, higher harmony than in the English version, that sounds more like a doubling with one harmony. Wikipedia
