THIS PETER GABRIEL COLLECTION STARTS WITH FOUR TREMENDOUSLY RARE OUT OF PRINT CLASSIC RECORDS AUDIOPHILE TITLES – WITH THE ANCHOR OF THESE FOUR TITLES BEING - CLASSIC RECORDS PETER GABRIEL TWO BOX SET - THIS IS THE AUDIOPHILE 45 SPEED BOX SET THAT INCLUDES FOUR 12" ONE SIDED PIECES OF VINYL.

And of course cutting at 45 speed is the audiophile choice for the highes quality. A 45-RPM record is sonically superior to a 33 1/3 variety because of a 35 percent reduction of groove curvature compared to a 33 1/3 cut.. It means that while you can't fit as much music into a 45, the undukations of the groove that your cartridge has to track are stretched over a longer distance. For these reissues, the music was displaced onto four sides, meaning each side contains about 10 minutes of music.

The only way you'll get closer to this classic music is to listen to the master tapes or have been in the studio with the artist originally during the actual session.

THE NOW RARE 45 SPEED FOUR LP BOX SET OF THE SAME TITLE. THIS TITLE HAS GONE IMMEDIATELY OUT OF PRINT. THE BOX HAS A SLIGHT BRUISE FROM THE DISTRIBUTOR CLASSIC RECORDS WHEN SHIPPED TO US. EVERYTHING ELSE IS PREFECT.

PETER GABRIEL TWO 45 SPEED BOX SET

Classic Records' newest formulation: CLARITY SV-P II CLEAR VINYL!
The genesis of the new formula came as a result of a visit to High End Audio's self proclaimed Vinyl Guru Michael Fremer's Analog Laboratory. Mr. Fremer demonstrated a Furutech LP demagnetizer. After using the demagnetizer, vocals had so much more texture, bass definition and clarity of every nuance of the recording was vastly improved and there was more low level information than we had ever heard in the recording.

Why did the demagnetizer had the sonic effects on a record? Very simply the carbon black that is ADDED to vinyl for LP manufacture contains trace metals that become randomly magnetized and interfere electrically with the cartridge hanging overhead during play. So... if carbon black and the trace metals contained therein caused playback distortion in the cartridge then why not take out the carbon black altogether? Classic Records Clarity SV-P II Clear Vinyl is the answer!

Clarity Vinyl represents the ultimate in vinyl formulations because it is comprised of over 90% percentage of the highest quality co-polymer available - a key component in vinyl pellets used for manufacturing vinyl records. Further, Clarity Vinyl has no carbon black additive, common in vinyl formulas for LP's. Carbon Black contains trace metals that become magnetized and cause "electrical distortions" in cartridges during playback that smears the sound. By taking out the Carbon Black, Classic Records is able to dramatically reduce the "electrical distortions" and thus bring more "Clarity" to the playback process, providing a more realistic musical experience to the listener and LP enthusiast.

45 rpm records have long been recognized as providing a higher fidelity musical experience resulting purely from the cartridge being able to extract more of the nuance from the complex vertical and horizontal groove modulations in stereo LP's. Further, Classic Records 45 rpm "single sided" pressings dramatically reduce the mechanical resonances created by the cartridge during playback by allowing these resonances to be more fully transmitted to and absorbed by the turntable platter. Classic Records Clarity Vinyl 45 rpm pressings are designed and manufactured to provide the "LOWEST DISTORTION" in every aspect of LP playback resulting in putting the listener as close to the music as possible. 

The Classic Reissue was cut from the original 1/2" 30 ips analog master tapes on the Classic all tube stereo cutting system at Bernie Grundman Mastering by "The Wizard" Bernie Grundman himself. Classic Records is please to offer this 45rpm Four single-sided discs set on Classic Records 200g Clarity SV-P for the first time!

Features:
• Quiex Clarity SV-P II Clear Vinyl
• 45rpm
• 200g
• Four LPs
• Stereo Version

 The pairing is ideal - the former front man of Genesis, as produced by the leading light of King Crimson. On this, Peter Gabriel's second album, the songs "On The Air" and "D.I.Y." are stunning slices of modern rock circa 1978, bubbling with streamlined production that nevertheless sounds as large as a stadium. Other tunes include "A Wonderful Day In A One-Way World," "White Shadow," "Animal Magic," the tense-yet-catchy "Perspective" and the reflective closer "Home Sweet Home."

1. On The Air 2. D.I.Y. 3. Mother Of Violence 4. A Wonderful Day In A One-Way World 5. White Shadow 6. Indigo 7. Animal Magic 8. Exposure 9. Flotsam And Jetsam 10. Perspective 11.

ONE/CAR - The first of three solo albums by the ex-Genesis singer, all to be officially released as only "Peter Gabriel". In time, the three would take on "also-known-as" nicknames based on the front-cover artwork of each. This volume is usually referred to as Peter Gabriel (I, Car). In 1977 there was much anticipation for the first solo effort from the flamboyant Gabriel. Three years had passed since his swan song with Genesis. He had certainly exited on a high note indeed with The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway. While fans shouldn't have worried about the survival of Genesis without their original lead singer, neither would they be disappointed in his solo debut. Produced by Bob Ezrin (Pink Floyd, Alice Cooper), he addressed the split with his band mates in the allegoric hit "Solsbury Hill", while retaining the art-rock sensibilities he had pioneered. The balance of the album, transferred from the artist's personal original master tapes, includes other concert favorites, such as "Moribund The Burgermeister", "Modern Love", "Excuse Me", "Humdrum", "Slowburn", "Waiting For the Big One", "Down The Dolce Vita" (featuring the London Symphony Orchestra) and "Here Comes The Flood". .

1. Moribund The Burgermeister 2.   Solsbury Hill 3.   Modern Love 4.   Excuse Me 5.   Humdrum 6.   Slowburn 7.   Waiting For The Big One 8.   Down The Dolce Vita 9.   Here Comes The Flood

This 200 Gram Heavy Vinyl LP is a Classic Quiex SV - Super Vinyl" is a new vinyl formulation noticeably superior to all previous vinyl formulas used.  The music on records made using Classic Quiex SV is more detailed, has richer harmonics and a more precise soundstage presentation   Quiex SV is used exclusively and will have a sticker that identifies them as such.... This Heavy Vinyl LP has been critically acclaimed as the finest and quietest ever produced. It is a new listening experience that will virtually make you feel as if you were in the studio with the band.  The nicest thing you can do for your stylus and ears.  So, sit back, relax, enjoy the music, and remember the sound.

 

Peter Gabriel's first foray into soundtracks was for Alan Parker's contemplative film Birdy and is a successful companion piece, providing a backdrop that is moody and evocative. Nearly half of the album's dozen tracks incorporate threads from material found on Gabriel's 1982 Security set, including "Close Up," which makes use of keyboard passages from "Family Snapshot," and "The Heat," which is a reworking of "The Rhythm of the Heat" and builds to a frenzied percussive crescendo. Material specially written for this project includes the murky opening track, "At Night," the tribal "Floating Dogs," and "Slow Marimbas," a track which would become part of future live performances. The fact that Birdy is comprised of all instrumentals and its meditative nature makes it fine, reflective listening for the more adventurous. The transfer was from the original two track 1/2" analog master tapes provided by Peter Gabriel's Real World for cutting the master lacquers. The detail, clarity and bottom octave weight are superb!

1. At Night
2. Floating Dogs
3. Quiet and Alone

5. Slow Water
6. Dressing the Wound
7. Birdy's Flight

PETER GABRIEL 4 CLASSIC RECORDS 140 GRAM LIMITED EDITION -

FOUR - Gabriel’s fourth album, which was titled Security in the U.S., continues where the third 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 decidedly somber and serious music, it has a brighter feel, partially derived from Gabriel’s dabbling in African and Latin rhythms. These are generally used as tonal coloring, enhancing the synthesizers that form the basic musical bed of the record. 4 flows easily and enticingly with songs like the eerie “San Jacinto,” “I Have the Touch” and “Shock the Monkey.” It remains a powerful listen, one of the better records in Gabriel’s catalog.

1.   The Rhythm Of The Heat 2.   San Jacinto 3.   I Have The Touch 4.   Family And The Fishing Net 5.   Shock The Monkey 6.   Lay Your Hands On Me 7.   Wallflower 8.

PLUS WE ARE ADDING THESE ADDITIONAL TITLES TO THE COLLECTION -    GENESIS THE LAMB LIES DOWN ON BROADWAY 180 GRAM ATALNTIC/RHINO 2008 OUT OF PRINT & TREMENDOUSLY RARE PRESSING 2LP SET   180 Gram Double Vinyl! Original Genesis Lineup at a Peak! Extraordinary Concept Album!

The 1974 double concept album The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway was Peter Gabriel's final with the band before Phil Collins took over as lead singer - the title track, "Carpet Crawlers" and "In the Cage" remain popular parts of live Genesis shows.

Few albums, especially of this epic proportion, rival this magnificent production first released in 1974. In an era of over indulgent double LP efforts and "rock operas", "Lamb" was inspired by a trip to New York City by the band, resulting in the writing and production of what is considered not only the high point of the "Gabriel era" of Genesis, but also in one of the greatest rock albums, ever. Featuring extended passages showcasing the multi-instrumental talents of the band plus the prolific and expressive if sometimes weird and disturbing lyrics by Gabriel, it tells the saga of a NYC graffiti artist named Rael and his ultimate transformation. The album would be Gabriel's swan song as a member and help launch a still on-going solo career.

"[I]t is a forceful, imaginative piece of work that showcases the original Genesis lineup at a peak... the album is set up in a remarkable fashion, with the first LP being devoted to pop-oriented rock songs and the second being largely devoted to instrumentals... In every way, it's a considerable, lasting achievement and it's little wonder that Peter Gabriel had to leave the band after this record: they had gone as far as they could go together, and could never top this extraordinary album." - Stephen Thomas Erlewine, allmusic

"Genesis have never sounded quite as powerful as they do on 'In the Cage,' 'Back in New York City" or other stand-out tracks on the album." - Rolling Stone

6. IT   GENESIS TRESPASS 180 GRAM OUT OF PRINT 2008 GEFFEN/RHINO RECORDS LP   180 Gram Vinyl! Includes "The Knife"!

1970's Trespass marked the beginning of a five-year journey that saw the band create ever more daring works of progressive rock. It features guitarist Anthony Phillips and drummer John Mayhew, who were replaced on the following album by Steve Hackett and Phil Collins respectively. Not to be missed are Peter Gabriel's soulful and angst-ridden vocals throughout the album.

The album cover was painted by Paul Whitehead, who also did the covers for the band's next two albums. Whitehead had finished the cover and then the band added 'The Knife' to the running order. Feeling that the cover no longer fitted the mood of the album, they asked Whitehead to redo it. Reluctant to do so, Whitehead was inspired to slash the actual canvas with a knife.

GENESIS NURSERY CRYME 180 GRAM OUT OF PRINT ATLANTIC/RHINO 2008 LP   180 Gram Vinyl! True English Eccentricism! Instrumental Prowess!

Nursery Cryme is the third studio album by Genesis recorded and released in 1971. It was the first to feature the lineup of Peter Gabriel, Tony Banks, Mike Rutherford, Phil Collins, and Steve Hackett. This lineup would remain constant until Gabriel's departure in 1975.

BBC Music praised the two new members of the band as fundamental to Genesis's artistic success, remarking "Collins’ snappy drums were augmented by his uncanny ability to sound not unlike Gabriel[...] Hackett’s armoury of tapping and swell techniques really broadened the palette of the band, giving Tony Banks more room for his Delius-lite organ filigrees, not to mention their newly purchased Mellotron", and gushed that "Genesis had virtually invented their own genre, Edwardian rock."

"Nursery Cryme is where their signature persona was unveiled: true English eccentrics, one part Lewis Carroll and one part Syd Barrett, creating a fanciful world that emphasized the band's instrumental prowess as much as Peter Gabriel's theatricality... 'The Musical Box' and 'The Return of the Giant Hogweed,' two epics that dominate the first side of the album and give it its foundation." - Stephen Thomas Erlewine, allmusic.

Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Albums of All Time - Rated 187/500!


One of the most successful and iconic music releases, Peter Gabriel's 1986 album, So, has been remastered for this special 25th Anniversary Limited Edition Box Set!

Released in 1986, "So" became one of the defining albums of the era and landed an international array of multi-platinum certifications ( in the US alone, it has sold over 5 million copies). Launched with the huge hit single and groundbreaking music video "Sledgehammer", which remains MTV's most played video of all time, "So" also contains many of Gabriel's biggest hits and most loved songs including "In Your Eyes", which famously featured in Cameron Crowe's movie "Say Anything" the haunting duet "Don't' Give Up", which was performed with Kate Bush, and "Big Time".

Released in 1986, 'So' became one of the defining albums of the era, landing multitudes of awards, millions of sales and a huge hit single with 'Sledgehammer'. But when Peter started work on this, his fifth album, in February 1985 in an old farmhouse called Ashcombe near Bath he had no idea of the explosive and enduring impact this album would have.

In February 1986 Peter finally finished the album:
"I think when we played the album back we knew it was good. It wasn’t like I was an obscure artist; I’d had hits with Shock The Monkey, Games Without Frontiers and Solsbury Hill but after each of them I’d purposefully retreated partially back into the shadows. With 'So' this was the end of the idea of me being a sort of cult artist at the fringes of the mainstream, especially in America. There wasn’t an option to go and hide in the shadows any more."

'So' 25th anniversary edition is the opportunity to explore how the album was made, the stories behind the songs, the evolution of each track and the outstanding live performance of the 'So' tour.
