Instead of touring with an opening act, the English rock legend presented the concert in two generous parts, essentially opening for himself.

There’s a new album due this month and a handful of singles have already been released, but to hear them in concert, complete with multi-layered arrangements and specifically designed visual images, allowed for a fascinating journey into the mind of a pop-music maestro.Article content

The show started with a pair of tracks from the early ’90s album, Us, before shifting into new fare from the forthcoming I/O album that not only demonstrated Gabriel’s concern for the planet and its inhabitants, but also served as a reminder that we’re all part of an interconnected universe. Each song was illustrated with its own unique lighting-and-video design that Gabriel said was created by new-media artists, the dazzling colours and images unfolding on an array of shapeshifting screens that seemed to dance around a circle that hovered over the stage. The attention to detail was incredible.

Naturally, the band assembled for Gabriel’s world tour was outstanding, anchored by his longtime mates, master bassist Tony Levin, guitarist David Rhodes, drummer Manu Katche and studio guru Richard Evans.
