Product Details

Peter Gabriel is the fourth studio album by the English rock musician Peter Gabriel. In the United States and Canada, the album was released by Geffen Records with the title Security. Some music streaming services refer to it as Peter Gabriel 4: Security.[12] A German-language version, entitled Deutsches Album (German Album), was also released. The album saw Gabriel expanding on the post-punk and world music influences from his 1980 eponymous studio album, and earned him his first US top 40 single with "Shock the Monkey". Instead of working with Hipgnosis on the cover art as he did for his previous three studio albums, Gabriel turned to sculptor Malcolm Poynter. The image is of Gabriel's face, based on an experimental videotape recorded by Poynter and heavily distorted through the use of flexible mirrors, Fresnel lenses, and lighting techniques.[13] The album was remastered with most of Gabriel's catalogue in 2002.
