Notes

Released in a standard jewel box with a 24-page color booklet.

Almost identical to Peter Gabriel - Us this has different DIDX code on the CD face and last page [pg. 24] bottom right-hand corner has "ENGLAND"

This album was mastered using the Linn Numerik System.

All tracks recorded and mixed at Real World Studios, except for one weeks recording at Kingsway Studio, New Orleans and one percussion session at Studio 2000, Dakar, Senegal. Some additional source percussion I recorded in Senegal in 1980.

There were different versions of many of the songs which did not make it through to this album.
