Happy Birthday Peter Gabriel

Today is Peter Gabriel's birthday.He is a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for his work with Genesis.

Here he is with Genesis with "The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway"

It is safe to say he hit the "Big Time" as a solo artist here..

One of my favorite songs of his is this one...

"The Knife" from the Genesis days..

I will leave you with this one.."In Your Eyes"

Happy 645th to Peter Gabriel! 

A to Z: Storm Thorgerson R.I.P

Today my blog honors a man who passed away last week. He was a man who worked in the music business but was not a musician but an artist. Storm Thorgerson is probably a name you don't recognize. However, you probably have his work in your home n your CD or vinyl collection. Even some of you who are totally electronic might have his work on a T-shirt. 

Thorgerson passed away last Thursday. He designed album covers for Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Genesis, Styx, The Cranberries, and Phish. It is Pink Floyd who is most famous. 

You have probably seen this one..

he did this one as well...

and this one..

I think a lot of people wish he was still here. Here is Pink Floyd's "Wish You Were Here"...

I'll be back tomorrow with a new post.
