Was at all of the above! the ABWH show was fantastic: Heart of the Sunrise with funk fingers. Whoa. A experience exceeded only by the same TLev/FF combo on 21st Century Schizoid Man at the Shepherds Bush Empire in 1996.

Now what I'd really like to see is a re-run of the PG South Bank Special, filmed at Real World during the recording of his fourth album.

Yes, the South Bank show on Gabriel was good.

Just one correction though, PG4 was not recorded at Real World, it was recorded (like So) at Gabriel's home studio at Ashcombe House near Bath.

Gabriel didn't set up Real World Records and his Real World Studios until after So. It was one of the things the album paid for I believe.

I've always loved the full-length version of In Your Eyes. It was a shame they had to chop it for the original cut.

PG's b-sides around that time were mint. Across the River, Don't Break This Rhythm... Lovely.
