Although I like much of his solo works, I do prefer his time around Genesis... I think he gave a very special meaning to the band...

Genesis! Genesis destroys my mind over and over again...
I've barely heard any of Gabriel's solo stuff, and from what i've heard about it, there's no reason to even bother.

I just recently bought my first Gabriel solo album, which turned out to be Peter Gabriel II (aka "Scratch") and to be honest, I don't find it particularly thrilling. Now, I am aware that it is a record that seems to divide the fan base quite a lot so perhaps I ought to give the man another chance with something like the debut or Peter Gabriel III -or even his most recent record, Up. As far as his singing goes, so far I haven't found anything on Scratch that would come close to his best performances in Genesis (The Lamb in particular, of course) He seemed like a man with great purpose during his time with Genesis. I still hope to find something equally inspiring in his solo catalogue...

Isn't it obvious? I am actually quite astonished that 9 people voted for gabriel's solo work...

I think he matured considerably as an artist and became a much better singer and writer after he left Genesis! |
Absolutely not, Gabriel solo tried to sell some lp in more and when it didn't work attempted to something more intellectual.

His voice defineatly improved and he must have had vocal training because in Genesis he couldn't sustain a note. His lyrics also began to make more sense!
Solo for me

He only served his apprenticeship in Genesis, he didn't become the complete artist until after he left Genesis.
I vote Gabriel SOLO
