No other man so represents the link between that which is electronic and that which is tribal and primitive...that which is western and that which is ethnic...that which is technological and that which is organic....as peter gabriel does.
kudos to the frankfurt musikmesse for recognizing the man's achievement...and congratulations to peter.
you are the daddy!!!!

Yes, congratulations to Peter for sure. It's nice to see people that may have seemingly disappeared from the limelight be recognized for their contributions and ideas. The ability to demonstrate a unique sound in a predominantly predictable pop world is definitely commendable.

It's about time Peter Gabriel was honoured in this way. Being a (Probably!) somewhat older member of this group I saw Peter first in 1981 on the little red book tour and he absolutely blew me away. His usage of technology and the fusion with ethnic, traditional music styles is inspiring. As has already been said the assistance he has given to new bands is fantastic check out Afro celt sound System to see what i mean. To see someone like him not only exist but thrive in this cynical industry is an absolute pleasure. If you haven't seen or heard his work, check it out you won't be disappointed!. Well done Peter!

QUOTE Peter Gabriel is the 'All-Time' innovators of Tech/Fusion/Funk/Rock/World Thang... Hey see My Life In the Bush of Ghosts. David Byrne and Brian Eno. Then it was in beyond Gabriel. That record marks the principle of present music. Thanks Mr. Byrne and Mr. Eno!!!
