The first of Peter Gabriel’s studio albums to have a proper title So was a watershed release with its perfect marriage of the artistic and the commercial. This is a 1LP black vinyl release with sleeve artwork and inner bag as per the original LP release but still with the artist’s preferred running order that has In Your Eyes closing the album. The album comes with a download card with a choice of digital download (Hi-Res 24/96k or 16/44.1k). The album, produced by Daniel Lanois, features intriguing collaborations - with Laurie Anderson on This Is The Picture, Kate Bush on Don’t Give Up and Youssou N’Dour on In Your Eyes - and contains some of Peter’s most recognisable and popular songs. “There is always wisdom from hindsight. And because ‘So’ was my most successful record, I think that a lot of people think that it was designed to be that. From the other end of it, you never really know which records are going to do well. You know that some things are going to be so obscure and difficult for a mainstream audience that they’re no-hopers but generally, with what I do, it’s hard to predict which albums are going to do well."
