Deutsches Album
Used - LP - 25S 104
Japanese Pressing Released With No Obi. Appears Unplayed. “Deutsches Album Is The Second German Language Album By British Progressive Rock Musician Peter Gabriel. It Is A German Language Adaptation Of Gabriel's Fourth Album, Peter Gabriel (1982) (Security In North America). The Deutsches Album Was Released Simultaneously With The International Edition In Germany. In Lyrics And Mixing, The Album Is Noticeably Different From The International Release. This Album Boasted A Different Running Order And Some Substantially Remixed Songs From The English Language Version. Even The Background Vocals Were Redone In German. Gabriel's Previous German Language Album, Ein Deutsches Album Had Been More Or Less Just An Overdub Of Its Corresponding English Language Version, Peter Gabriel. The Running Order Of Deutsches Album Is Slightly Different From Its Parent, As "San Jacinto" Is Transposed With "The Family And The Fishing Net" (Here, "Das Fischernetz"). There Are Also Some Obvious Differences In Running Times, With Some Songs Being 15-30 Seconds Longer Or Shorter Than The Corresponding International Versions. Track Eight Gained A Final Coda Not On The English Version, While Track Seven Has An Earlier Instrumental Fade. Other Changes Are Only Noticeable When Listening To Both Versions Back-To-Back, Such As The Shouted Nonsense Refrain Of "WAKAKA WAKAKA" In Track Three. There Are Also Subtle Differences In The Instrumental Mixes.” - Wikipedia

Live Blood
New - LP - PGLPRX17
Sealed 2022 only pressing. "Live Blood" is a live album by English musician Peter Gabriel, released in April 2012. The album captures the performances from the "New Blood" concert held at the Hammersmith Apollo in London in March 2011. Unlike traditional rock concert recordings, "Live Blood" features orchestral renditions of Gabriel's work, performed with the New Blood Orchestra. Gabriel, known for his innovative and theatrical approach to music, reimagines his classic hits and covers in this album, showcasing a blend of symphonic elements that add a unique dimension to his well-known sound.
The album includes live versions of songs from Gabriel's extensive catalog, such as "In Your Eyes," "Red Rain," and "Don't Give Up," as well as a cover of Paul Simon's "The Boy in the Bubble." The orchestral arrangement, led by conductor Ben Foster, provides a fresh perspective on these tracks, pairing Gabriel's evocative vocals with lush, detailed instrumentation. "Live Blood" is a testament to Gabriel's versatility and willingness to explore new musical territories, transforming his rock compositions into rich, immersive symphonic experiences.

New Blood
New Import - PGLP13
Sealed, Out Of Print 2011 2LP 180gm Original. Top Seam Splits. Housed In A Gatefold Cover With Bonus 7 Inch Picture Single Of "Solsbury Hill". "Almost Every One Of Peter Gabriel’s Best-laid Plans Winds Up Going Awry, And So It Was With Scratch My Back, His 2010 Collection Of Orchestral Covers Of Some Of His Favorite Songs. He Had Hoped To Have The Artists He Covered Return The Favor By Interpreting His Songs But That Project Never Got Off The Ground, So He Pursued New Blood, An Album Where He Turned That Orchestra Upon His Own Songs. New Blood Is In Every Way A Companion Piece To Scratch My Back; It’s Cut From The Same Aesthetic Cloth, It's Austere And Cerebral Without Being Chilly, It Finds Emotion Within Intellect. Some Songs Aren’t Considerably Different Tonally Than The Original Versions -- This Is Particularly True Of The So Material, With “mercy Street” And “red Rain” Seeming No Different In Their Transition From Synclavier To Symphony -- But The Ones That Are Heavily Reworked, Such As “san Jacinto” And “intruder,” Are Startling, Rearrangements That Seem To Give The Songs A New Set Of Bones. New Blood Isn’t Always As Astonishing But That’s Fine: The Faithful Adherence To Melody On “don’t Give Up” And “in Your Eyes” Functions As Something Of A Palate Cleanser, And Even When The Album Isn’t Risky It’s Always Quietly Absorbing." AMG - Stephen Thomas Erlewine.

Peter Gabriel
Used Import - CDS 4013
1978 UK Original On The Mad Hatter Label, With Original Inner. "The Pairing Sounds Ideal -- The Former Front Man Of Genesis, As Produced By The Leading Light Of King Crimson. Unfortunately, Peter Gabriel's Second Album (Like His First, Eponymous) Fails To Meet Those Grandiose Expectations, Even Though It Seems To At First. "On The Air" And "D.I.Y." Are Stunning Slices Of Modern Rock Circa 1978, Bubbling With Synths, Insistent Rhythms, And Polished Processed Guitars, All Enclosed In A Streamlined Production That Nevertheless Sounds As Large As A Stadium. Then, Things Begin To Drift, At First In A Pleasant Way ("A Wonderful Day In A One-Way World" Is Surprisingly Nimble), But By The End, It All Seems A Little Formless. It's Not That The Music Is Overly Challenging -- It's That The Record Is Unfocused. There Are Great Moments Scattered Throughout The Record, Yet It Never Captivates, Either Through Intoxicating, Messy Creativity (As He Did On His Debut) Or Through Cohesion (The Way The Third Peter Gabriel Album, Two Years Later, Would). Certain Songs Work Well On Their Own -- Not Just The Opening Numbers, But The Mini-epic "White Shadow," The Tight "Animal Magic," The Tense Yet Catchy "Perspective," The Reflective Closer "Home Sweet Home" -- Yet For All The Tracks That Work, They Never Work Well Together. Ironically, It Holds Together A Bit Better Than Its Predecessor, Yet It Never Reaches The Brilliant Heights Of That Record. In Short, It's A Transitional Effort That's Well Worth The Time Of Serious Listeners, Even It's Still Somewhat Unsatisfying." All Music Guide - Stephen Thomas Erlewine.

Peter Gabriel
Used - LP - SRM-1-3848
1980 US Original with colour printed insert. Known As "Peter Gabriel 3" Or "Melt". Produced By Steve Lillywhite. "Generally regarded as Peter Gabriel's finest record, his third eponymous album finds him coming into his own, crafting an album that's artier, stronger, more song-oriented than before. Consider its ominous opener, the controlled menace of "Intruder." He's never found such a scary sound, yet it's a sexy scare, one that is undeniably alluring, and he keeps this going throughout the record. For an album so popular, it's remarkably bleak, chilly, and dark -- even radio favorites like "I Don't Remember" and "Games Without Frontiers" are hardly cheerful, spiked with paranoia and suspicion, insulated in introspection. For the first time, Gabriel has found the sound to match his themes, plus the songs to articulate his themes. Each aspect of the album works, feeding off each other, creating a romantically gloomy, appealingly arty masterpiece. It's the kind of record where you remember the details in the production as much as the hooks or the songs, which isn't to say that it's all surface -- it's just that the surface means as much as the songs, since it articulates the emotions as well as Gabriel's cubist lyrics and impassioned voice. He wound up having albums that sold more, or generated bigger hits, but this third Peter Gabriel album remains his masterpiece." All Music Guide - Stephen Thomas Erlewine.

Peter Gabriel
Used Import - 20S-100
Beautiful 1984 Japanese reissue with insert that wraps onto cover like an Obi strip. "Peter Gabriel tells why he left Genesis in "Solsbury Hill," the key track on his 1977 solo debut. Majestically opening with an acoustic guitar, the song finds Gabriel's talents gelling, as the words and music feed off each other, turning into true poetry. It stands out dramatically on this record, not because the music doesn't work, but because it brilliantly illustrates why Gabriel had to fly on his own. Though this is undeniably the work of the same man behind The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway, he's turned his artiness inward, making his music coiled, dense, vibrant. There is still some excess, naturally, yet it's the sound of a musician unleashed, finally able to bend the rules as he wishes. That means there are less atmospheric instrumental sections than there were on his last few records with Genesis, as the unhinged bizarreness in the arrangements, compositions, and productions, in tracks such as the opener "Moribund the Burgermeister" vividly illustrate. He also has turned sleeker, sexier, capable of turning out a surging rocker like "Modern Love." If there is any problem with Peter Gabriel, it's that Gabriel is trying too hard to show the range of his talents, thereby stumbling occasionally with the doo wop-to-cabaret "Excuse Me" or the cocktail jazz of "Waiting for the Big One" (or, the lyric "you've got me cookin'/I'm a hard-boiled egg" on "Humdrum"). Still, much of the record teems with invigorating energy (as on "Slowburn," or the orchestral-disco pulse of "Down the Dolce Vita"), and the closer "Here Comes the Flood" burns with an anthemic intensity that would later become his signature in the '80s. Yes, it's an imperfect album, but that's a byproduct of Gabriel's welcome risk-taking -- the very thing that makes the album work, overall." All Music Guide - Stephen Thomas Erlewine

There Are Great Moments Scattered Throughout The Record, Yet It Never Captivates, Either Through Intoxicating, Messy Creativity (As He Did On His Debut) Or Through Cohesion (The Way The Third Peter Gabriel Album, Two Years Later, Would). Certain Songs Work Well On Their Own -- Not Just The Opening Numbers, But The Mini-epic "White Shadow," The Tight "Animal Magic," The Tense Yet Catchy "Perspective," The Reflective Closer "Home Sweet Home" -- Yet For All The Tracks That Work, They Never Work Well Together. Ironically, It Holds Together A Bit Better Than Its Predecessor, Yet It Never Reaches The Brilliant Heights Of That Record. In Short, It's A Transitional Effort That's Well Worth The Time Of Serious Listeners, Even It's Still Somewhat Unsatisfying." AMG - Stephen Thomas Erelwine.

"The Pairing Sounds Ideal -- The Former Front Man Of Genesis, As Produced By The Leading Light Of King Crimson. Unfortunately, Peter Gabriel's Second Album (Like His First, Eponymous) Fails To Meet Those Grandiose Expectations, Even Though It Seems To At First. "On The Air" And "D.i.y." Are Stunning Slices Of Modern Rock Circa 1978, Bubbling With Synths, Insistent Rhythms, And Polished Processed Guitars, All Enclosed In A Streamlined Production That Nevertheless Sounds As Large As A Stadium.

Peter Gabriel 1
Used - LP - 2OS-100
Beautiful 1977 Japanese Pressing With Obi. LP Appears Unplayed. “Peter Gabriel Tells Why He Left Genesis In "Solsbury Hill," The Key Track On His 1977 Solo Debut. Majestically Opening With An Acoustic Guitar, The Song Finds Gabriel's Talents Gelling, As The Words And Music Feed Off Each Other, Turning Into True Poetry. It Stands Out Dramatically On This Record, Not Because The Music Doesn't Work, But Because It Brilliantly Illustrates Why Gabriel Had To Fly On His Own. Though This Is Undeniably The Work Of The Same Man Behind The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway, He's Turned His Artiness Inward, Making His Music Coiled, Dense, Vibrant. There Is Still Some Excess, Naturally, Yet It's The Sound Of A Musician Unleashed, Finally Able To Bend The Rules As He Wishes. That Means There Are Less Atmospheric Instrumental Sections Than There Were On His Last Few Records With Genesis, As The Unhinged Bizarreness In The Arrangements, Compositions, And Productions, In Tracks Such As The Opener "Moribund The Burgermeister" Vividly Illustrate. Much Of The Record Teems With Invigorating Energy (As On "Slowburn," Or The Orchestral-Disco Pulse Of "Down The Dolce Vita"), And The Closer "Here Comes The Flood" Burns With An Anthemic Intensity That Would Later Become His Signature In The '80s. Yes, It's An Imperfect Album, But That's A Byproduct Of Gabriel's Welcome Risk-Taking -- The Very Thing That Makes The Album Work, Overall.” Stephen Thomas Erlewine, AMG.

Peter Gabriel IV
Used Import - 25VB-1072
Beautiful 1986 Japanese reissue with Obi & insert. "Security -- which was titled Peter Gabriel everywhere outside of the U.S. -- continues where the third Gabriel 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, since much of this is mood music (for want of a better word). Security flows easily and enticingly, with certain songs -- the eerie "San Jacinto," "I Have the Touch," "Shock the Monkey" -- arising from the wash of sound. That's not to say that the rest of the album is bland easy listening -- it's designed this way, to have certain songs deliver greater impact than the rest. As such, it demands close attention to appreciate tone poems like "The Family and the Fishing Net," "Lay Your Hands on Me," and "Wallflower" -- and not all of them reward such intensive listening. Even with its faults, Security remains a powerful listen, one of the better records in Gabriel's catalog, proving that he is becoming a master of tone, style, and substance, and how each part of the record enhances the other."

Scratch My Back
Audiophile - New - PGLP
Factory Sealed, Very Limited 2010 200gm Translucent Red Vinyl Original. “Considering The Slow Trickle Of Completed Albums He Has Released Since Becoming A Superstar In 1986 -- Just Two Albums Of Songs With Vocals, Paired With Two Albums Of Soundtracks And Two Live Records -- Deliberate Is Expected From Peter Gabriel, So The Slow, Hushed Crawl Of Scratch My Back Is No Shock. What May Be A Shock Is That Gabriel Chose To Follow 2002’s Up With A Covers Album But, Like All Of His Work, This 2010 Record Is Highly Conceptual No Matter How Minimal The End Result May Be. Designed As The First Half Of A Two-Part Project Where Gabriel Would Cover 12 Different Artists Who Would Then Return The Favor By Recording Their Own Versions Of Gabriel’s Compositions -- The Counterpart Album Naturally Bearing The Title I’ll Scratch Yours -- Scratch My Back Divides Neatly Between Six Songs From His Peers (Bowie, Paul Simon, Randy Newman, Neil Young, Lou Reed, David Byrne) And Six Songs From Younger Artists (Radiohead, Arcade Fire, Stephin Merritt, Bon Iver, Elbow, Regina Spektor). Gabriel Doesn’t Dodge Familiar Tunes, Choosing To Sing “Heroes” And “Street Spirit (Fade Out),” But He Twists Each Tune To His Own Needs, Arranging Everything With Nothing More Than Piano And Strings, A Change That’s Almost Jarring On Simon’s “The Boy In The Bubble,” Yet It Stays True To The Undercurrent Of Melancholy In The Melody. Indeed, All Of Scratch My Back Is Stark, Sober, And Spare, Delving Ever Deeper Inward, A Triumph Of Intellect Over Emotion -- A Noted Contrast To Almost All Cover Albums That Celebrate The Visceral, Not The Cerebral. Immediate It May Not Be But Fascinating It Is, And After Hearing Gabriel Turn All 12 Of These Songs Into Something Unmistakably His Own, The Appetite Is Surely Whetted For Its Companion Piece.” Stephen Thomas Erlewine, AMG.

Used - LP - GHS 2011
1982 Original With Custom Inner Sleeve. Cut At Townhouse In London. NM- Vinyl, Slight Bottom Edge Wear. "Security -- Which Was Titled Peter Gabriel Everywhere Outside Of The U.s. -- Continues Where The Third Gabriel 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, Since Much Of This Is Mood Music (For Want Of A Better Word). Security Flows Easily And Enticingly, With Certain Songs -- The Eerie "San Jacinto," "I Have The Touch," "Shock The Monkey" -- Arising From The Wash Of Sound. That's Not To Say That The Rest Of The Album Is Bland Easy Listening -- It's Designed This Way, To Have Certain Songs Deliver Greater Impact Than The Rest. As Such, It Demands Close Attention To Appreciate Tone Poems Like "The Family And The Fishing Net," "Lay Your Hands On Me," And "Wallflower" -- And Not All Of Them Reward Such Intensive Listening. Even With Its Faults, Security Remains A Powerful Listen, One Of The Better Records In Gabriel's Catalog, Proving That He Is Becoming A Master Of Tone, Style, And Substance, And How Each Part Of The Record Enhances The Other."

Security
Used - LP - GHS 2011
1982 Original With Custom Inner Sleeve. Cut At Townhouse In London. "Security -- Which Was Titled Peter Gabriel Everywhere Outside Of The U.s. -- Continues Where The Third Gabriel 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, Since Much Of This Is Mood Music (For Want Of A Better Word). Security Flows Easily And Enticingly, With Certain Songs -- The Eerie "San Jacinto," "I Have The Touch," "Shock The Monkey" -- Arising From The Wash Of Sound. That's Not To Say That The Rest Of The Album Is Bland Easy Listening -- It's Designed This Way, To Have Certain Songs Deliver Greater Impact Than The Rest. As Such, It Demands Close Attention To Appreciate Tone Poems Like "The Family And The Fishing Net," "Lay Your Hands On Me," And "Wallflower" -- And Not All Of Them Reward Such Intensive Listening. Even With Its Faults, Security Remains A Powerful Listen, One Of The Better Records In Gabriel's Catalog, Proving That He Is Becoming A Master Of Tone, Style, And Substance, And How Each Part Of The Record Enhances The Other." AMG - Stephen Thomas Erelwine.

Needless To Say, It Was Also His Most Accessible, And, In That Sense It Was A Good Introduction To So, The Catchiest, Happiest Record He Ever Cut. "Sledgehammer" Propelled The Record Toward Blockbuster Status, And Gabriel Had Enough Songs With Single Potential To Keep It There. There Was "Big Time," Another Colorful Dance Number; "Don't Give Up," A Moving Duet With Kate Bush; "Red Rain," A Stately Anthem Popular On Album Rock Radio; And "In Your Eyes," Gabriel's Greatest Love Song, Which Achieved Genuine Classic Status After Being Featured In Cameron Crowe's Classic Say Anything. These All Illustrated The Strengths Of The Album: Gabriel's Increased Melodicism And Ability To Blend African Music, Jangly Pop, And Soul Into His Moody Art Rock. Apart From These Singles, Plus The Urgent "That Voice Again," The Rest Of The Record Is As Quiet As The Album Tracks Of Security. The Difference Is, The Singles On That Record Were Part Of The Overall Fabric; Here, The Singles Are The Fabric, Which Can Make The Album Seem Top-Heavy (A Fault Of Many Blockbuster Albums, Particularly Those Of The Mid-'80s). Even So, Those Songs Are So Strong, Finding Gabriel In A Newfound Confidence And Accessibility, That It's Hard Not To Be Won Over By Them, Even If So Doesn't Develop The Unity Of Its Two Predecessors.” Stephen Thomas Erlewine, AMG.

New - LP - PGLPR5
Sealed 2024 reissue pressed on 180gm vinyl. Custom hype sticker on shrink. Claims to include hi-res download card. "Peter Gabriel introduced his fifth studio album, So, with "Sledgehammer," an Otis Redding-inspired soul-pop raver that was easily his catchiest, happiest single to date. Needless to say, it was also his most accessible, and, in that sense it was a good introduction to So, the catchiest, happiest record he ever cut. "Sledgehammer" propelled the record toward blockbuster status, and Gabriel had enough songs with single potential to keep it there. There was "Big Time," another colorful dance number; "Don't Give Up," a moving duet with Kate Bush; "Red Rain," a stately anthem popular on album rock radio; and "In Your Eyes," Gabriel's greatest love song, which achieved genuine classic status after being featured in Cameron Crowe's classic Say Anything. These all illustrated the strengths of the album: Gabriel's increased melodicism and ability to blend African music, jangly pop, and soul into his moody art rock. Apart from these singles, plus the urgent "That Voice Again," the rest of the record is as quiet as the album tracks of Security. The difference is, the singles on that record were part of the overall fabric; here, the singles are the fabric, which can make the album seem top-heavy (a fault of many blockbuster albums, particularly those of the mid-'80s). Even so, those songs are so strong, finding Gabriel in a newfound confidence and accessibility, that it's hard not to be won over by them, even if So doesn't develop the unity of its two predecessors."

Audiophile - LP - PGDLP 12
Factory Sealed 2006 2LP 180gm HQ Test Pressing. “Ten Years Is A Long Time, Especially In Pop Music, But Waiting Ten Years To Deliver An Album Is A Clear Sign That You're Not All That Interested In The Pop Game Anyway. Such Is The Case With Peter Gabriel, Who Delivered Up In 2002, A Decade After Us And Four Years After He Announced Its Title. Perhaps Appropriately, Up Sounds Like An Album That Was Ten Years In The Making, Revealing Not Just Its Pleasures But Its Intent Very, Very Slowly. This Is Not An Accessible Record, Nor Is It Easy To Warm Up To, Which Means That Many May Dismiss It Upon A Single Listen Or Two, Never Giving It The Time It Demands In Order To Be Understood (It Does Not Help Matters That The One Attempt At A Single Is The Ham-Fisted, Wrong-Headed Trash-TV "Satire" "The Barry Williams Show," Which Feels Utterly Forced And Out Of Place Here, As If Geffen Was Pleading For Anything Resembling A Single To Add To The Album). Really, There Is No Other Choice For An Artist As Somber And Ambitious As Gabriel To Craft An Album As Dense As Up; Those Who Have Waited Diligently For Ten Years Would Be Disappointed With Anything Less And, Frankly, They're The Only Audience That Matters After A Decade. And They're Not Likely To Be Disappointed, Since This Album Grows Stronger, Revealing More With Each Listen. Initially, It Seems To Simply Carry On The Calmer, Darker Recesses Of Us, But This Is An Uncompromising Affair, Which Is To Its Advantage, Since Gabriel Delves Deeper Into Darkness, Grief, And Meditation. It May Take A While For Him To Emerge From The Darkness -- There Is Little Of The Comfort Of A "Come Talk To Me" Or "Blood Of Eden," Which Are Immediately Soothing On Us -- But There Are Glimmers Of Hope Throughout The Album, Even In Its Darkest Moments. Again, It Takes Awhile To Sort All This Out -- To Unlock The Form Of The Songs, Then Their Meanings -- And It's Such A Somber, Hushed, Insular Affair That Some Dedicated Listeners May Not Bother To Spin It The Appropriate Number Of Times. But Those Serious Fans Who Want To Spend Time With This Will Find That It Does Pay Back Many Rewards.” William Ruhlmann, AMG.

Audiophile - New - PGLP10
Sealed 2002 200gm Audiophile Reissue On Quiex-SVP Vinyl From Classic Records. Not Factory Shrink Wrapped But Housed In A Clear Outer Sleeve With Custom Classic Records Sticker Seal. "Six Years After Earning His First Blockbuster, Peter Gabriel Finally Delivered Us, His Sequel To So. Clearly, That Great Span Of Time Indicates That Gabriel Was Obsessive In Crafting The Album, And Us Bears The Sound Of Endless Hours In The Studio. It's Not Just That The Production Is Pristine, Clean, And Immaculate, It's That The Music Is, With Only A Handful Of Exceptions (Namely, The "Sledgehammer" Rewrite "Steam" And The Fellatio Ode "Kiss That Frog"), Remarkably Subtle And Shaded. It's Also Not A Coincidence That Us Is, As Gabriel Says In His Liner Notes, "About Relationships," Since The Exquisitely Textured Music Lets Him Expose His Soul, Albeit In A Typically Obtuse Way. Since The Music Is So Muted, It's No Surprise That The Album Failed To Capture A Mass Audience The Way So Did, But It's Foolish To Expect Anyone But Serious Fans To Unravel An Album This Deliberate. Gabriel Is As Adventurous As Ever, Yet He Is Relentlessly Sober About His Experiments, Burying Exotic Sounds And Percussion Underneath Crawling Tempos Measured Atmospherics -- This Is Tastefully Two-toned Music, Assembled By A Consummate Craftsman Who Became Too Immersed In Detail To Make Anything But An Insular, Introspective Work. Some Gems Are Easier To Unearth Than Others -- "Digging In The Dirt" Has An Insistent Pulse, "Blood Of Eden" And "Come Talk To Me" Are Quite Beautiful, "Secret World" Is Quietly Anthemic -- Yet, Given Enough Time, The Record's Understated Approach And Reflection Becomes Its Most Attractive Element. But It Takes A Lot Of Spins And Patience To Get To That Point, Since This Is An Album He Made For Himself, And Only Those Dedicated To The Artist Will Have The Patience To Decode It."
