Peter Gabriel - 3: Melt (Vinyl)

Produced by Steve Lillywhite, Peter Gabriel III—affectionately known as Melt due to its iconic Hipgnosis-designed cover—marked a significant shift in Gabriel’s songwriting. For the first time, rhythm took precedence over melody, with songs built on intricate rhythmic sequences.

The album features the UK Top 5 hit Games Without Frontiers and Biko, Gabriel’s first overtly political track. It also includes contributions from Kate Bush, Paul Weller, Phil Collins, and David Rhodes, helping define a unique sound that set Gabriel apart from his peers.
