The Angel Gabriel

A Friday update. Firstly, I interviewed the blue-eyed, rumble-tummied, sledgehammering pop shaman himself – Peter Gabriel to you and me – for The Guardian this week: http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2010/jun/02/peter-gabriel-scratch-my-back

I also went into Guardian HQ itself to yammer about Stornoway, Tune-Yards and minimal techno on The Guardian Weekly podcast with Alexis Petridis and Rosie Swash: http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/musicblog/audio/2010/jun/02/music-weekly-stor…

I also wrote about my night out at the O2 with Lady Gaga for the New Statesman (http://www.newstatesman.com/blogs/cultural-capital/2010/06/lady-gaga-fans-pop; my stroll along the Lea with my friend Andrew for this week’s Lines Made By Walking column (http://caughtbytheriver.net/2010/06/lines-made-by-walking-12/); and reviewed the amazing new Nina Nastasia record, Outlaster (http://www.bbc.co.uk/music/reviews/69m5), and Robert Wyatt’s brilliant best-of, His Greatest Misses (http://www.bbc.co.uk/music/reviews/48zb), up now on the BBC Music site.
