Man I love that guitar work. Don't know who is playing on Gabriel's 1st album but the guitar/effect/style sounds almost identical to the guy who plays on Bat Out of Hell (song), Todd Rundgren perhaps? Both albums came out roughly the same year. If this album was the ONLY thing Gabriel ever did, he still would have been viewed as a freakin genious all these years.
I have a Direct Disk Labs half speed mastered vinyl copy of this album, which has the London Symphony Orchestra introduction to this song, which is edited out of all other pressings of the album...
I kind of think you miiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight!

Not so strange really - half the musicians on this album played for Alice Cooper at the time... :)

I thought Fripp handled the guitar for the majority. Or is it wishful thinking... Fripp kicks arse

It's not really symphonic, but a full band introduction (maybe some orchestration and / or a choir)...
They would play it live this way (with the intro) before the piano run that fades in as on all other pressings of the album.
Does anyone know why the intro I have was cut from other copies?

Wrong Cecil. Peter wasn't signed to Epic, this album came out on ATCO records.
