Peter Gabriel's 1982 Solo Album Peter Gabriel 4: Security on 180g LP. Features Hit Single "Shock the Monkey."
Co-produced by Peter Gabriel and David Lord, Peter's self-titled fourth solo album (also known as Security) is the first album where he really immersed himself in the music of distant lands and cultures. It was also his first fully digital recording. These two elements created a deeply effective soldering together of futurism and generations-old tradition. The single "Shock the Monkey" became Peter's first top 30 hit on the Billboard Hot 100.
"The fourth album was done at Ashcombe House, an old farm house in a beautiful valley, about five miles from where we are now at Real World. It was the first time really that I'd had a studio situation of my own and we were building up equipment; we didn't always have what we needed. And when you did something really good the cows would come and lick the windows. So that was always a sign of real appreciation."
