Recorded in Europe in the summer of 2004, Peter Gabriel's Still Growing Up - Live and Unwrapped is a follow-up to 2003's Growing Up Live. The idea this time was to capture Gabriel and his band performing a variety of songs not heard on the earlier tour, with the gigs taking place in what he describes as "all sorts of smaller venues," where "we get up onstage with minimal lights and simply play the music." Of course, "smaller" is a matter of perspective; the town squares, outdoor amphitheatres, and other sites in Belgium, England, Italy, Switzerland, Germany, and France where the band appeared are still plenty big enough to hold several thousand people, and the production values are hardly what you'd call spartan. But whatever their dimensions, the shows yielded some extraordinarily powerful performances. After a haunting "The Feeling Begins" (a track from Gabriel's Passion, the score for Martin Scorsese's The Last Temptation of Christ), played solo on the Armenian doudouk, Gabriel and company take the stage and almost immediately forge a palpable bond with their audience. Indeed, what we are witnessing is as much a tribal rite as a concert, with the febrile, hypnotic intensity of the music matched by the crowd's chanted responses on such tunes as "Solsbury Hill," "Sledgehammer," and "Biko" (along with the latter, songs not heard on the previous DVD include "San Jacinto," "White Ashes," "The Tower that Ate People," and "Games Without Frontiers"; there's also a wonderful performance of "In Your Eyes" among the bonus tracks). Overall, this is a moving experience that viewers with sophisticated home systems will delight in sharing. The centerpiece of the set's second disc is Unwrapped, an approximately 70-minute "band on the road" documentary that would have been a standard variation of the form were it not for Gabriel's strong visual sense; check out the cool lighting and film projection effects used during the interviews with the artist. --Sam Graham

A reminder of Gabriel's greatness
This 2-disc collection is a reminder, once again, of Peter's greatness. The performances on the stripped down Still Growing Up Tour prove that Gabriel doesn't always need the elaborate stage and theatrics. He's fine and in his groove with his band - just playing the music. I always admired PG's funky side, as in Burn You Up, Burn You Down. And he can rock too, as in the case of The Tower That Ate People, which takes on a menacing force in this live version thanks to David Rhodes' always excellent guitar work. I saw the original Growing Up Tour in person, and only wish he had done some of these songs during that show. The extras on both discs are okay. No Self Control is of particular interest. I saw him perform this song live at the L.A Coliseum for an Amnesty International show in 1988 - and was simply astounded. The way the lights were "attacking" him...I had never seen anything like that before. A great collection to add to the Gabriel catalogue for sure.


Still Growing Up
This may be a special offering for fans. This video was shot at smaller venues throughout Europe on the Still Growing Up tour. While not as likable as Secret World and Growing Up there are some amazing performances here of some of the deeper cuts in the Gabriel catalogue. There are performances of seven songs that dis not appear on the original Growing Up disc. <

>While the material is worthwhile I could not rate it higher due to the multiple venue filming technique. When I buy a live DVD I want to see the entire live performance not several performances inter cut together. <
> <
>The two disc set includes the concert footage on disc one while disc two contains the Unwrapped feature. This is essentially the same material re-edited with some interesting backstage footage and questions mixed in by Anna Gabriel. While it was interesting as a concept I'm not sure that the whole thing would not have worked better as an audio commentary over the main feature. <
> <
>Extras include three studio videos; a couple of performances from the TV show Later with Jools Holland and a video from the P.O.V. Tour. Of special interest is a video of In Your Eyes that should have been left in the main program given the format. <
> <
>In sum, if you are a fan buy it. If you just have an interest in the music its a pretty good if not spectacular rental.
