Since these string quartet tributes to everybody under the sun started coming out, these days it seems like artists with a single album on the charts for the first time get one. Here, the brain trust at Vitamin Records have decided to do one of these sessions on
Peter Gabriel, an artist who might actually benefit from the treatment, and the potential to do something really special was obvious. Just check the track listing: "Solsbury Hill," "Shock the Monkey," "Here Comes the Flood," "Red Rain," and so on. Although stock charts were employed throughout and the playing is often less than inspired, one can't quarrel with the selections chosen. ~ Thom Jurek
