[Rena Sherwood · Rating 5 out of 5]

Chock full of great photos and quotes gleaned from decades of Peter Gabriel interviews. Some quotes are doctored slightly in order to fit the format of the book, but they do not change the meaning. This winds up giving a better portrait of PG than the Spencer Bright or Chris Welch bios!
