Peter Gabriel's "Up"
True to my procrastinating self, I waited until this past weekend to purchase my very own copy of the new Peter Gabriel album.. Being even more so a procrastinator I didn't really listen to it until today at work when co-worker chatter forced me to apply the soothing device known as headphones to my ears.
I'm in love with this album. To say it's terrific is probably an understatement. I suppose cannot expect anything but the best since it took him merely ten years to record it..
Peter Gabriel has always been near the top of the list of my favorite musicians and once again I've been reassured as to why.. He's one of the very few artists with integrity, honesty in his sound and the talent to back it up.
I'm particulary drawn to "Growing up" despite the rather heavy techno undertones (maybe it's just me..)..

Did I mention I really like this album?

I got it the day it came out. I love it too!
I'm still upset he cancelled his tour appearance here in Cowtown. But $150 for a decent seat is a bit high! Still... I have been waiting to see him since the early 90s!!!
