May 19: So

Another post for today about 'So' as I seem to have written two without realising.

Today, in 1986, Peter Gabriel released his fifth album, and the first with a title.

It was also the start of his new phase of music.

I was privileged to see his live tour in support of this album in 1987, complete with its amazing staging, and the moment when he fell backwards into the audience and they supported him and carried him around as he sang. I also attended the concerts that were held 25 years later... heading up to the Hydro in Scotland to see that one.

And the final song remains a live performance closer... before the encore of Biko.


And here's a DNA video created in 2013:
