Peter Gabriel has released a digital compilation album titled Flotsam And Jetsam.

The 62-track collection brings together b-sides, remixes and rarities from the former Genesis frontman’s solo career and has been split into three eras.

The first covers Gabriel’s material from 1976-1985 and opens with a cover of the Beatles Strawberry Fields Forever and also features a previously unreleased extended version of Slowburn, the extended outro single version of Perspective, the re-recorded version of D.I.Y. for its reissue in 1978, and an alternative mix of I Don’t Remember.

The second focuses on material Gabriel recorded between 1986-1993 and includes the previously unreleased full version of Don’t Break This Rhythm, Bashi-Bazouk from the Digging In The Dirt single and Nile Rogers’ mix of Walk Through the Fire

This era also features various remixes by artists including Massive Attack, The Bomb Squad and William Orbit.

The third and final era captures Gabriel’s work from 1994-2016, and includes Summertime from Larry Adler’s Glory Of Gershwin album and Suzanne from the Tower Of Song Leonard Cohen tribute album.

There are also remix by Trent Reznor, Elbow, Röyksopp and Martyn Bennett among others.

Flotsam And Jetsam is available on Spotify and Apple Music.
