The album features 13 re-recorded Gabriel solo hits performed with an orchestra. It is a follow-up to Gabriel's orchestral covers album, Scratch My Back, which was released last year.

"The orchestra provides different dimensions to the music that weren't there initially," says Gabriel. "Rock artists work slowly in studios, building up layer by layer, and one of the great, powerful advantages of an orchestra is all these musicians playing at one moment with all sorts of colours and personalities."

Here's the tracklist:

  1. The Rhythm of the Heat
  1. Downside Up
  1. San Jacinto
  1. Intruder
  1. Wallflower
