Episode 125 – Peter Gabriel Part 10, Peter Gabriel Soundtracks

Ken and Joe take a trip back to the Peter Gabriel catalog to consider three of his soundtrack records Birdy, Passion, and OVO. This group of records provided quite a musical journey. Birdy provided a unique experience with previous material in the context of feature film. The music is not new, but certainly not what we had before. It is a fascinating look at how music can be experienced differently based on context. Passion challenged us by opening up a new world of musical possibility. It is subtle yet powerful. OVO proved to be the hidden gem in this set. Joe actively avoided this album for years and was ultimately rewarded with a rich and engaging musical experience. Unexpectedly wonderful, OVO was the highlight of the experience.
