Peter Gabriel – Us 2LP

Peter Gabriel – Us 2LP

Us is a studio album by British singer, songwriter and musician Peter Gabriel. Originally released in 1992, it followed the huge success of So and moved into a more personal, atmospheric and emotionally complex direction, combining art rock, world music influences, sophisticated production and Gabriel’s unmistakable vocal presence.

This 2LP edition includes Come Talk To Me, Love To Be Loved, Blood Of Eden, Steam, Only Us, Washing Of The Water, Digging In The Dirt, Fourteen Black Paintings, Kiss That Frog and Secret World. The album is especially important for Digging In The Dirt, Steam, Blood Of Eden and Secret World, and remains one of Gabriel’s most detailed and emotionally layered records.

This 2LP 180 gram half-speed remastered vinyl reissue was released by Virgin Music on 1 December 2016. The edition presents Us across two records, giving its long, spacious and carefully produced songs more room on vinyl.

On a good hi-fi system, Us should sound deep, spacious and immersive: Gabriel’s voice placed with strong emotional focus, layered percussion and keyboards, rich bass textures, world music colours and the kind of carefully built studio depth that rewards attentive listening.
