Following his experimental and atmospheric recordings of the early 1980s, the album *So* became the very album that made Peter Gabriel a global pop star without forcing him to compromise his creative principles. It strikes the perfect balance between art rock, pop music, world music, and innovative studio sound.
The album gave the world several timeless songs at once: “Sledgehammer,” “Don’t Give Up” (a duet with Kate Bush), “Big Time,” “In Your Eyes,” and “Red Rain.” Each of them showcases different facets of Gabriel’s talent—from energetic funk to soulful ballads and spiritual reflections.
The recording featured outstanding musicians, including bassist Tony Levin, drummer Manu Katché, and guitarist Daniel Lanois, and was produced by Peter Gabriel himself and Daniel Lanois. To this day, the album is considered the gold standard of studio production thanks to its incredible detail, spatial depth, and dynamic range.
