Beyond Peter and good songs, what things would you always expect/want to hear on a new PG album? - David Rhodes - Tony Levin - Shankar - At least one "funky" type song - Unusual yet distinctive artwork

Good sleeve notes, legible lyrics!

SHANKAR, absolutely.

Tony Levin. . David Rhodes. . . Female voice: Elizabeth Fraser. .

A plethora of drums and guitars. . .

Bring back Manu Katche on drums.

Bob Ezrin for "New Blood" as producer. back to the new stuff: I absolutely agree with a "funky type song". He could also feature some of the current signed artists at Real World. Why not getting Larry Fast back on board ? I must say I also like Ged Lynch (is it just me ?) David Rhodes and Tony Levin (to the right and left of PG) . . .and that certain sth. that makes you say: "aaah. . .this can only be music and a song by PG". that "certain something" one cannot find in the music of ANY other artist.

Tony Levin on bass Phil Collins on drums Robert Fripp on guitar Larry Fast on keyboards backing vocals by Kate Bush. That's what I would like to hear - but I expect just Tony Levin (which is good, eh, but that comlpete lineup would be killer :-]).

I like Ane Bruns voice very much, but for "Don't give up", Kate Bush would be great!

A list of wishful ingredients. . . A guest appearance by any, some or all of the following: Steve Hackett Robert Fripp Daniel Lanois Manu Katche Phil Collins Larry Fast Shankar Kate Bush Sinead O'Connor Paula Cole And please Peter. . .can you make it a double CD? One can dream. . .:-]

. . . but Phil can play drums?

It would be so nice to see Peter collaborating again with steve Hackett. I can't agree more MAK! It's always good dreaming

I would like to see PG use more acoustic instruments in future songs, like in "Mother Of Violence" or "Party Man" and less use of electronics (like in "Growing Up" for example)

I totally agree with Caste. And I would like to hear some CP70 again, but that instrument is hopelessly out of style and outdated, I guess.

Would like to add another to my guest appearance wish list. . . Youssou N'Dour . . . . . .and. . .agreed Cimber. . .featuring some new blood (no pun intended ) with current signed Real World artists would be cool. . . Sammy. . .the Gabriel/Hackett collaboration has been a dream of mine for many years. . .good to see I'm not alone with this dream. . . Are you listening Peter? :-]

Let's take this Gabriel/Hackett collaboration dream a step further. . .at least for moi. . . . . . How about revisiting this tune. . .PG on vocals, of course. . . "Deja Vu". . . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73QHGXUmD0o . . .one can dream!

Ahhhhhh MAK, let's hope PG will hear you about this WONDERFUL track "Déjà Vu". I wonder why Peter never collaborated again with Steve, and obviously on this track. It would have been magical to hear Peter sings this song. The lyrics are very simple but very deep and moving too. I think the lyrics are writen by Peter and this song was rehearsed by Genesis in 1973 around "Selling England By The Pound". Peter, can you do something with this song????????

In the last months I heared more of Steve Hackett and though he sometimes looks and more looked like a macho-man his way of playing and composing is full of tender fantasy. So I also agree to MAK and Sammy: They (Peter and Steve) should play it again!

Agreed Sammy!

I trust Peter to make those decisions, I will just be happy when there is a new album with NEW material.
