Peter Gabriel. Sledge Hammer.

Reminds me of Bowie's Fame

The 1975 sound a bit like Walk The Moon to me. I don't think they have much to offer other than nostalgia but then I can be very critical.

I love Peter Gabriel's music. Some of my favourites are:

An absolute vocal, musical and visual genius!!

I did two nights at Wembley Arena in the round, best gigs I've ever been to!!

Peter Gabriel. Sledgehammer. Nothing not to like.

I bought So because of Sledgehammer.

What a fantastic collection of songs and performances.

Probably my most favourite number in our set. PG is my favourite solo artist by far.

I keep trying to persuade the others to do Sledgehammer. Excellent song.

[/quote]I'm gonna suggest this to a band soon - no reason why you can't make a cracking tune like this work with available instruments.

That version of Here Comes the Flood is amazing, sounds more like something from The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway done like that. Love the first PG album; that one and So are my faves of his.

For no other reason than 'just because', here's an awesome cover of Moribund the Bergermeister I've just found on YouTube:

It's more like the version he recorded with Robert Fripp on his album "Exposure"
I've always much preferred this version to the one on Gabriels first album.

I've been lucky enough to spend a bit of time with Tony Levin , he showed me various ways to play Sledge hammer & explaining it was all about the groove .
