Limited Deluxe Half-Speed Vinyl Reissue!
‘Long Walk Home’ is an album based on the music from the film Rabbit Proof Fence. Written and produced by Peter, the album is the end result of two years work with the film's director Phillip Noyce and brings together a multitude of different musical origins, cultures, instruments and vocalists.
"I've always loved film music and I've been lucky enough create music for three very different kinds of film, that became the albums ‘Birdy,’ ‘Passion’ and ‘Long Walk Home.’ All the films share strong stories and memorable performances. In each case they also have musical directors in the shape of Alan Parker, Martin Scorsese and Phillip Noyce, who really care about, and feel, the music they work with. They each allowed me to create moods and atmospheres within the music that I felt could serve their narrative.
“I still love all the possibilities and different disciplines involved in working for film and I'm pleased that people will have the chance to re-visit the work on these records with these vinyl re-issues” – Peter Gabriel.
Over the last two years Peter Gabriel's seven studio albums have been reissued on vinyl to much critical acclaim. Continuing the series it is now the turn of his three Soundtrack albums to receive the same treatment.
