Peter Gabriel – The Late Show: Live in New York, 1978 (12-Inch Double-LP)

This album showcases Peter Gabriel’s stunning concert at The Bottom Line, in New York, on 4 October 1978, during the Scratch Tour.

This show is part of the pivotal 1978 touring cycle where Gabriel was moving away from his theatrical Genesis persona to establish his own unique solo identity, bridging progressive rock with more adventurous avant-garde, pop, and electronic sounds.

Featured across two discs, are a number of cuts from Peter Gabriel’s then-recent second studio album, including On the Air, Mother of Violence and Perspective, alongside earlier fan favourites such as Solsbury Hill and Here Comes the Flood, a surprising cover of The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway, and more.
