Description
Composed for Phillip Noyce’s Rabbit-Proof Fence at Real World, Long Walk Home distils Peter Gabriel’s ambient, percussive side into a lean, evocative score. The title piece Long Walk Home creeps in on hushed drones and patient hand percussion, with a bass figure that edges forward like footsteps across hard ground. Elsewhere the palette is all earth and air, with voice, drums and sparse melodic lines doing the storytelling rather than big themes. It plays beautifully on a late drive across Melbourne, when the city thins out and small sounds feel larger.
This 2LP 45RPM pressing gives the music room to breathe. Space opens up between the drums, and transients snap more cleanly, so the rhythmic details land without smear. Imaging across the layered percussion and ambient textures is more solid, making quiet cues feel purposeful rather than vague.
File it beside Gabriel’s Passion era, or next to Brian Eno’s film work if you like scores that move by texture and pulse rather than melody. If you’d rather order online, you can buy Peter Gabriel records online with us.
A strong addition for anyone who wants Gabriel beyond the singles, and for collections that prize atmospheric soundtracks with real-world instrumentation handled with care. Buy online now with fast shipping across Australia, or pick it up in our Preston record store.
