Blue J Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Peter Gabriel's early solo career (Gabriel 1-4) was way more interesting then anything he gave us in Genesis. Mick I have to listen to those albums. I've been meaning to for some time now. They are some of my favorite albums. I should add i've warmed greatly to Gabriel Genesis ........but i still VASTLY prefer those 4 solo albums to anything he did in the group. Mick ...and you know I prefer the Gabriel era to the Collins stuff. Gabriel's brand of unconventionality is right up my alley. But I've never owned or listened to a whole solo album of his. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue J Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Back to the unpopular opinions, though... Why doesn't anyone on this forum talk about James Taylor? Brilliant songwriter and guitarist, both.  (Here's the 'unpopular' element of my post):  One of my favourite JT albums is New Moon Shine, from 1991. I think it rivals anything he did during his classic 1970-'77 period. It's different, definitely; the sound is a product of its time and technology. But it's excellent. Every song sounds like something you might hear on adult contemporary radio...I listen to virtually nothing else that inhabits that portion of the musical landscape. But my goodness, I love that record! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You exit that casino onto the Boardwalk and the Hall is right next to the Plaza. off topic. I LOVE the Borgata, lol Gorilla is indeed excellent. Mick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
