Peter Gabriel - Play DVD
 
Amazon has this DVD coming out on 11/16 in the US. I am really looking forward to this. He's got some excellent videos and I can finally ditch my VHS of CV.

For the first time ever on DVD the video collection you've been waiting for. Featuring 23 videos, with fully restored visuals and amazing new 5.1 mixes by Peter and Daniel Lanois, and extras including three bonus videos (also with full 5.1 surround mixes). The 5.1 mixes are presented for the first time in a DTS format that is at full 24bit/96khz surround for the ultimate audiophile experience. In addition, Dolby 5.1 and Dolby Stereo soundtracks are provided for those of us without the latest and greatest equipment.

As if this wasn't enough each video has a short introduction with either "Making Of" footage and/or spoken introductions by Peter through the ages.

Also there is an advanced programming feature that allows you to create you own playlist of up to 18 tracks, play it once or set it to loop forever!

Speaking about the release Peter said “Although I believe that music can stand more repetition than video and music together, I have always been excited at the idea of putting pictures to music’. As a big film fan, some of my favourite directors have often managed to mix music and image very powerfully. I love to collaborate with inventive, visual people to put pictures to these songs. I have also been a long time fan of surround sound, which offers a great opportunity for musicians to take advantage of the medium. I love being able to listen from inside the music, rather than observing from the outside.”

I've been waiting for this too. Gabriel does some of the best videos out there, there are few artists whom I'd like to own a video collection of but his stuff's great.

I've to agree with you there... and it'll go very nicely with my "Weird Al" Music Video DVD. ;):up:

I'll get this when my finances are better. For now, I can live with my CV and All About Us laserdiscs.

Just bumping this as a heads-up: Best Buy will have it for $11.99 this week.

I'm holding off this week, too. Once I get a job, though, I'm all over it. Or maybe I'll cave and buy it (likely).

Just got this. It's friggin' great! I always felt a little sorry for Peter Gabriel; after setting the bar so high with Sledgehammer, he couldn't go back to low-key videos again. Still, there are plenty of interesting clips in this set, many I've never seen before.
The DTS 5.1 mixes are amazing. In Your Eyes especially sounds heavenly. Well worth the low price for any fence-sitters. :up:

Got mine for 12 bucks and well well worth it! Love the menus and the mixes. Classic videos on here and I was surprised by the masterwork 'The Drop'. Also, 'Zaar' was always my favorite PG video and it holds up...

I really do like the DVD, but my Denon AVR-2105 won't decode the DTS 96/24 track correctly. It's way to silent.

Anybody else in here experiencing this?
