专辑介绍

Peter Gabriel的第五张专辑，在保持一贯的创新精神的同时，他让歌曲变得更有流行性，但并没有人批评他是向市场妥协，因为专辑中的音乐并未失去他的特点，这张专辑也被众多fans认为是他最经典的一张。

这张专辑在滚石杂志选出的500张历代最强专辑中排名第187位。

Gabriel introduced his fifth studio album So with "Sledgehammer," an Otis Redding-inspired soul-pop raver that was easily his catchiest, happiest single to date. Needless to say, it was also his most accessible, and, in that sense it was a good introduction to So, the catchiest, happiest record he ever cut. "Sledgehammer" propelled the record toward blockbuster status, and Gabriel had enough songs with single potential to keep it there. There was "Big Time," another colorful dance number; "Don\'t Give Up," a moving duet with Kate Bush; "Red Rain," a stately anthem popular on album rock radio; and "In Your Eyes," Gabriel\'s greatest love song which achieved genuine classic status after being featured in Cameron Crowe\'s classic, Say Anything. These all illustrated the strengths of the album: Gabriel\'s increased melodicism and ability to blend African music, jangly pop, and soul into his moody art rock. Apart from these singles, plus the urgent "That Voice Again," the rest of the record is as quiet as the album tracks of Security. The difference is, the singles on that record were part of the overall fabric; here, the singles are the fabric, which can make the album seem top-heavy (a fault of many blockbuster albums, particularly those of the mid-\'80s). Even so, those songs are so strong, finding Gabriel in a newfound confidence and accessibility, that it\'s hard not to be won over by them, even if So doesn\'t develop the unity of its two predecessors.
