Robert Fripp, the guitarist on the first record, was promoted to the producer’s chair and continued to feed Peter’s growing fascination with electronics and new recording techniques. The resulting album is a denser, more experimental album than the debut. “We recorded the second album in Holland were we started to get to know each other a lot more as musicians. At that time there were less people in the studio and we started, in this isolated environment of the Dutch studio, to interact in a different way, and I think some of the band chemistry began to form." - Peter Gabriel Read more: petergabriel.com/release/peter-gabriel-2 On The Air D.I.Y.
