Peter Gabriel‘s acclaimed half-speed remastered vinyl saw all his original albums cut at 45RPM and pressed (for the most part) on two vinyl records. As stated at the time, those will not be repressed, but Real World are making available new versions cut at the standard 33RPM.
These new editions are still half-speed remastered but replicate the original vinyl LP release, with all the albums being single LPs except for US and UP, which are doubles, as per their original release. All original inner bags and inserts are included.
These are much cheaper than their 45RPM cousins, with the single LPs available for just £12.99 from Gabriel’s website, which is incredible value actually, when you consider that these come with a hi-res download code. They are also available via the usual channels as well, albeit at a slightly higher price point.
These new 33RPM pressings are released on 2 December 2016.
