It looks like Peter Gabriel has moved his solo discography to Bandcamp.

It's interesting that an artist of his stature is using the site. Though, good for us, since we should be able to get higher rez FLAC files, rather than MP3s.
I prefer getting music through Bandcamp, anyway, since the artist gets a better percentage of each sale.
Great news! Thanks for sharing. I hope others will follow.
I just got Passion one of the few i did not own yet.
This is great news. When the first news of the Flotsam and Jetsam collection hit, it was only available in lossy MP3s. I'm happy to get these in FLAC.

Bandcamp is the platform of the future.
But what's this? Humor from Mr. Gabriel?Originally Posted by Peter Gabriel
On the one hand, I suppose I'm a PG completist, which isn't too hard to be if you think about it. I've got pretty much everything else he's put out. And there are some (a few) true rarities on this. The FLAC is definitely a selling point. OTOH, it's 30 quid for a digital download of an odds-and-sods collection mostly remixes and live versions of familiar tunes. A dilemma...
Do what I did: sample all the songs. Decide what's worth a buck and what isn't.

^^^ What have you found to be essential?
Good news!
Yep, that sounds like Peter.
Frankly, nada. I already had the good stuff.
I love PG - kept me and my teenage friends enthused in the early 80’s when everyone else from the 70’s seemed to have given up and Bandcamp is my go to store for music. Seems like a great partnership.
For me it'll be fast and easy: Passion , period. Nothing else in his solo discography, sorry.
