Cheers for the advice Sozbot - I'll invest in that.

I love the German album,,,although I've read here and there that the translations are not all that accurate?,,,
Since I have never heard the entire album in English (apart from the radio singles) and I am not fluent in German, I don't really know if this is the case. Really love the album regardless.

I've got a German version of both 3 and 4.  Can't say I listen to them as I don't speak German and I prefer the original version.  I do remember the version of Games Without Frontiers from that album got a lot of air play in the US (I can't understand why for the life of me).  There is, however, a great version of GwF remixed by Massive Attack.  Absolutely brilliant.

The current issue of "Prog Rock" magazine has an article about Gabriel in it. Talks about the "so" album.
I'm geared towards the averagae rather than the exceptional.
