Our Take

Let's dive into the time machine and journey back to 1988, a year filled with big hair, neon colours, and Peter Gabriel's "Human Rights Now!" album. Now, this experimental masterpiece is not your typical run-of-the-mill pop record, folks. No sir! This album is a swirling kaleidoscope of world music influences, thought-provoking lyrics, and groovy beats that will make you want to get up and dance like it's 1988 all over again.

Gabriel's signature blend of rock, world music, and electronic elements shines bright on tracks like "In Your Eyes" and "Biko", transporting listeners to a world where boundaries and genres cease to exist. The powerful message of human rights and social justice threads through every note, reminding us all of the importance of standing up for what is right.

But let's not forget the star-studded lineup of guest musicians, including Tracy Chapman, Bruce Springsteen, Youssou N'Dour, and Sting, who add their own unique flair to the album. From haunting ballads to infectious dance numbers, each track on "Human Rights Now!" is a wild ride that will leave you craving for more.

So, if you're looking for a musical journey that will make you think, feel, and groove all at the same time, look no further than Peter Gabriel's "Human Rights Now!". It's a timeless classic that proves music can truly change the world.

About the artist

Peter Gabriel

Peter Gabriel: The Man, The Myth, The Genesis. If there ever was a truly enigmatic figure in the realm of music, it would have to be Peter Gabriel. The man who brought us classics like "Sledgehammer" and "In Your Eyes," Gabriel is not only a talented musician but a true innovator in the industry. Known for his larger-than-life stage presence and eccentric fashion sense, Gabriel has always marched to the beat of his own drum - sometimes quite literally. With a career spanning over four decades, Peter Gabriel has continually pushed the boundaries of what is considered traditional music. From his time as the frontman of Genesis to his innovative solo work, Gabriel has never shied away from experimentation. Who else could have written a song about a man experiencing an out-of-body experience in "Solsbury Hill" and still make it a commercial success? Beyond his music, Gabriel is also a passionate advocate for social justice and humanitarian causes. He co-founded the non-profit organization Witness, which uses video and online technologies to expose human rights abuses around the world. In 1986, he organized the renowned "Conspiracy of Hope" tour in support of Amnesty International, showcasing his commitment to making a difference through his platform. With a discography as diverse as his wardrobe, Peter Gabriel is a true musical chameleon who continues to surprise and delight his fans with each new release. Whether you're a hardcore Genesis fan or just discovering his music for the first time, there's no denying the impact that Peter Gabriel has had on the world of music. Truly a legend in his own right, Peter Gabriel is a force to be reckoned with - both on stage and off.
