As we continue with this look at Peter Gabriel live shows, and move up into the 1990's now. Here is a fantastic recording of a great 1993 show from the Secret World Tour, which was in support of his 1992 album, Us, and was utterly amazing. This is from a Berlin Germany show, and very close to the time that the show was recorded and releases as Peter's Secret World Live album (1994). That recording was from a couple of shows in Italy several days after this one. But this recording is just as good, and one of the very best from this tour. It sounds sensational. This show has a very similar setlist as the Secret World Live album, but with a couple of additional songs. In this show, we lose Red Rain (unfortunately), but gain Games Without Frontiers, San Jacinto, and Schanpschuss (which is the German language version of Family Snapshot). So, even if you already have Secret World Live (which is a great live album), there are some additional gems in this show.  A great setlist of songs, featuring many from Us and So, and Peter's sensational band make for a stunning show.

  1. Thanks for sharing. A bit confusing, 'cause most of the filenames have Bremen instead of Berlin. I don't think Gabriel played in Bremen in 1993. According to setlist.fm he also played Biko and Here Comes The Flood at the very end of the show.

  2. Dirk,
    Yes, that is confusing, but that is how I received the files. As far as I can tell though, they all do come from the Berlin show. But these are all there were, no indication that Biko and Here Comes the Flood were recorded, if they were played at this show. Thanks.
