I would be interested in "Dead Air for Radios" (Chroma Key) covered by Gabriel, especially Mouse (Now Watch What Happens). Or "Go" by O.S.I. Yes, I admit that sometimes I think Moore sounds a bit like Gabriel. Other would be Pain of Salvation's "Enter Rain". No classic prog here!
But another studio album is my favourite option.. come on Peter!

I couldn't agree more. What is it with all the artists doing covers? Running out of inspiration or what!!
More studio work please

I think it is absolutely mandatory that he cover a PC-era Genesis tune...hopefully he will pick one of the better tunes...That's All or Abacab would be cool, although I wouldn't mind him having a go at Mama or Domino. Or maybe even something from ATOTT would be pretty cool, say Squonk or DOAV.
Other than that...I agree with whoever said an early Bowie tune...I would choose Cygnet Committee, Quicksand, or if he wanted to go a bit more commercial with it maybe Life on Mars?
I think it would also be cool if he covered some of the newer prog bands, maybe not the ones directly Genesis-inspired though, like K2, The Watch, etc. but maybe some TFK, some PT, some Tangent or Rocket Scientists. Finally, I wouldn't mind hearing PG cover a VDGG or PH song. T'would be interesting.

Some Camel stuff?? Don't know really how's Peters voice now.. If he is like in the 70's well I supose he could do some Camel, an infamous prog band. Not for PA of course..

Glad I'm not one of Peter's vocal cords on that one, but a great track from a great period of a great band.  |

I think this might be something for PG:
He could take a bunch of songs from female singer-songwriters and interpret them from a male point-of-view , as Tori Amos did on Strange Little Girls (the other way around, of course),
Quite a challenge, I would imagine. Cheeky too.

I asked for Boris the Spider from The Who, think it will sound good and actually fits Perter gabriel very well.

I was having a real hard time with this until I started thinking about the Tori Amos album of covers, Strange Little Girls, and pretty much everyone she did would make for a good cover by Peter. Of course I'd really just prefer a new album of originals.
When I first read this thread I read it as ideas for album covers, and I was thinking I haven't seen any new Roger Deans lately. Maybe Dean could do a cover for his album of covers.  Edited by Slartibartfast - March 28 2008 at 19:18 |

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...
