Peter Gabriel To Reissue Back Catalog [img:$uid]http://i51.tinypic.com/2ccm92x.jpg[/img:$uid]
October 2010
Although his catalog was just put back into print last month, Peter Gabriel is planning a full series of new reissues in 2011, including an expanded 25th anniversary edition of his crossover smash So packaged with mixes, demos and new artwork.
In his latest monthly video update to fans, Gabriel announces plans to reissue his back catalog next year, noting, “I’ve been given a little boot up the backside as it’s 25 years next year from So’s original release. So we want to try and do something around that” (via Genesis-News.com).
Gabriel adds that he’s got someone rooting around for “mixes and demos,” and that he’d like to “see if we can get some kind of special package around that.” He offers no further details on So or his other titles, which were re-released in late September using the same remastered versions first issued in 2002.
He did note, however, that he’s been talking to an artist “who plays with albums, often taking a lot of the visual information away, leaving hair or eyes or hands,” and that he wants to use those techniques to take “a new look at all the album sleeves, which I think we’ll do something with next year as part of this re-release.”
In the October update, Gabriel also said he recently filmed a performance of his New Blood orchestral tour in Verona, Italy (”Hopefully we’ll be able to get that out one day,” he said), and added that work continues on the orchestral re-recordings of his old hits that he plans to release as a companion to this year’s Scratch My Back.

Coincidentally enough, every time someone tazers my nutsack it feels as if I'm spinning a stack of newly-acquired Prince remasters. "Not everything that is faced can be changed; but nothing can be changed until it is faced." - James Baldwin | |

I guess Mike + The Mechanics are next. You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |

All of the Genesis stuff (except the 1969 album) has been remastered/mixed and released within the last 2 or 3 years. Now it is Peter. So I guess the other members like Mike Ruthorford & Phil Collins will do theirs next. I doubt that Tony Banks & Steve Hackett's records will be remastered because their solo music has never been commercially successful.

He needs to find the master tape when he and Kate Bush covered "Another Day" for her TV special in the late 70s.
"So" is decent, but it's always been III, the melting face album that's one of my favorites, but I love "Here Comes The Flood". | |
