Metro would be almost completely forgotten had David Bowie not covered their Criminal World on Let's Dance. Five years and two Metro albums later Peter Godwin emerged as a solo act to release Torch Songs (For The Heroine). This was followed by Images Of Heaven, most likely the song for which he will be remembered. Two videos exist for Images Of Heaven: the first, suitable for Saturday Morning children's television, features a girl who comes to life off the front of Peter's cereal box. The second, more suitable for the Playboy Channel, features nude girls in crucifixal poses. An album (Correspondance) was released, which should have done better than it did, although, for what it's worth, Baby's In The Mountains was used in a club scene on an American soap opera (sorry-- don't know which one). There was also a video for Baby's In the Mountains, with Peter walking through deserted, early morning city streets. The new compilation from Oglio contanins three new tracks (four if you count the remix of Rendezvous), plus lyrics and some excellent running commentary from the man himself.
