Phil Collins brought his Both Sides tour to Dortmund for four shows between 15 and 19/04/1994. All other shows in Germany have been scheduled for autumn so the Dortmund gigs are something special.
In 1993 Genesis, Eric Clapton and musicians from Pink Floyd, Queen played a benefit concert at Cowdray Ruins. Looking back, this show is a pivotal Genesis gig – it was their last performance with Phil Collins for many years to come…
After the highly successful Genesis tour in 1992 Phil Collins hurried back into the studio to (as it turned out later) cope with the problems of his private life. The result is Both Sides, a very personal album he recorded without any other musicians.
After a time of little output Steve Hackett achieved a sort of comeback in 1993 when he released a new rock album called Guitar Noir.
Peter played a couple of gigs in Germany early on in the Secret World tour. The most important details about that can be read here.
Peter Gabriel played one of the first German shows of his Secret World tour at Deutschlandhalle Berlin, on March 17, 1993. We report from the tour start.
Genesis released the second part of their live album from the We Can’t Dance tour in January 1993. The Way We Walk: The Longs was mainly for the long-term fans of the band.
The extremely successful 1992 open air world tour and the theatre tour that followed in the UK prompted several releases. The first of these was volume 1 of The Way We Walk – The Shorts.
Six years went by before Peter Gabriel presented a successor to his tribute to mainstream, So. His new album has another two-letter title. Bernd Zindler did a quality check.
