Editorial Reviews

Onetime Genesis frontman turned iconoclastic solo artist Peter Gabriel tours infrequently, but never with anything less than a spectacular stage show, and this acclaimed recording from his 1993 "Secret World Live" tour is ample proof. On stage -- make that two stages -- in Modena, Italy, Gabriel leads his ensemble through tracks primarily culled from his then-recent Us album with a mix of his earlier hits. For those who know the albums, the live arrangements and performances are fresh and full of subtle surprises, and Gabriel's backing band couldn't be better. "Mr. Clean" Tony Levin on bass and stick, drummer Manu Katche, guitarist David Rhodes, and the violinist Shankar all seem, like Gabriel, to be having a blast. And Paula Cole's vocal contributions bring welcome contrast to Gabriel's singular reedy warble. Favorites such as as "Solsbury Hill," "Sledgehammer," and "In Your Eyes" have never sounded better; and the visuals -- captured on video by director François Girard (The Red Violin) -- truly dazzle on DVD. Bonus features include interviews with Gabriel, behind-the-scenes footage, and the film "The Making of Peter Gabriel's Secret World Live." Tracks are as follows:
