Solsbury Hill (live - in Athens) - Peter Gabriel - MP3 instrumental karaoke

Peter Gabriel recalled a deeply spiritual experience at Somerset's Solsbury Hill for his hit debut single "Solsbury Hill." The song introduced his solo creative vision to the world for the first time following his departure from Genesis in 1975, after serving as the group's lead vocalist. On "Solsbury Hill"—captured here in all its live glory at the end of his 1987 This Way Up tour in Athens, Greece—Peter Gabriel immortalised an awakening ("Climbing up on Solsbury Hill / I could see the city light / Wind was blowing, time stood still / Eagle flew out of the night") that translated into a Top 20 UK hit, making it to number 13 as well as reaching 68 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1977. "Solsbury Hill (live - in Athens)" appeared on his Live in Athens 1987 album, which opened with "This Is The Picture (excellent birds)" and took in megahits like "Sledgehammer" before closing triumphantly with "Biko."
