Ok people, here's a question.
Through some research I discovered that Peter Gabriel's songs "Sledgehammer" & "Big Time" were released with a B-side each.
"Don't Break This Rhythm" and "Curtains" respectively....
NOW....being the B-Side maniac that I am, and a fan of PG I was wondering if anyone knew where I could find them?

Thanks,
Rob

I'm stumped!!! Also try any work he has done with the right honourable Karl Wallinger.

I'll probably just go to a place that sells vinyl and hunt the singles down.

Yeah, I can remember being a real B-side fanatic. Have some great Springsteen, some Prince, Talk Talk..and I did have some Gabriel (long gone)...I remember 'Soft Dog,' for one.

I've got Sledgehammer with Don't Break This Rhythm on the B-side and Don't Give Up with a different mix of In Your Eyes on the B-side. Are they worth anything?

According to my Record Collector book 2004, they're worth around £5-8.

Got them both in my collection. "Don't break this rhythm" is great, recorded in 85 or 86 but it wouldn't misstand on the "security" album as well. Don't like "Curtains" very much though. Gabriel has some more good b'sides like "across the river". After the release of "Up" I thought the record company would release a b'side collection but they released another "best of" package instead. Still would like to see a b-side collection released.

I seem to remember I once bought a version of Peter Gabriel III sung entirely in German. Anyone else remember this?

I have the "Deutsches Album" ... I bought it around 1997 while
touring through Germany, while in Berlin. I have it on disc ...
and listen to it frequently. No, I don't speak deutsches. The
voice is lead instrument to my ears.
