AboutStacieDee Expertise I am a long-time fan of Mr. Gabriel and am knowledgable about all of his solo work since leaving Genesis.
Experience I run a website about David Rhodes (with his cooperation), who has played guitar with Peter Gabriel for 25 years and am very knowledgable about most areas of his career.

Question Is Peter Gabriel the same one who sange "Imagine" (JOHN LENNON) at the present ongoing Winter Olympics at Turin, Italy? Did he start his career 1971-1980 and are some of his albums "US" "SECURITY" the dmr ones this Peter Gabriel recorded? thanks
Answer Hi Dorothy -
Yes, the Peter Gabriel who sang "Imagine" during the opening ceremonies of the 2006 Olympic Games is the same man who was a founding member of the band Genesis and has been working as a solo artist since 1977. Incidentally, he has also written soundtracks for films such as "The Last Temptation of Christ", "Birdy" and "The Rabbit-Proof Fence".
On "Imagine", PG was accompanied by Ged Lynch, a member of his band since 2002, and David Rhodes, who has played guitar on every project PG has done since 1979.
