Today marks the release of Peter Gabriel’s new ‘Live Blood’ — featuring performances of classics such as “Solsbury Hill,” “Don’t Give Up” and “Red Rain” with a full orchestra recorded in London last year — and we’ve got three copies of the album to award to lucky Slicing Up Eyeballs readers.
This week’s new releases include a brand-new, four-track digital EP from Public Image Ltd., plus a new 2CD live album from Peter Gabriel, a double-DVD vintage live set from Joe Jackson and the U.K. release of World Party’s new 5CD ‘Arkeology’ box set.
Peter Gabriel this month will release a 2CD concert album called ‘Live Blood’ recorded March 23, 2011, at London’s Hammersmith Apollo — the same performance that yielded last year’s ‘New Blood: Live in London’ DVD — and today he’s teasing the release by streaming this live, orchestral version of ‘Solsbury Hill.’
