28) "The Mid-Morning Recording"         Peter Gabriel-'Up'
Pleased to say that I saw Peter finally perform live on the tour for this album. There's even a soundboard recording of the performance officially released. I thought about playing that live CD, but went with the studio album. I recently purchased a vinyl copy of this album, and it was yet another great album that I had not played before. Some great tunes on this album including "Sky Blue"; being one of the best songs in all of Peter's repertoire. "Growing Up" and "More Than This" are great singles as well. A really strong album from the super talented Mr. Gabriel. The album has really interesting album art as well. Most of his albums do. "I sing through the land, the land sings through me. Sky blue" - Michael - MFL
