Shock the PR writer

Just saw this press release about the new Peter Gabriel anthology. The relevant passage is this one:

From his 1977 solo debut are "Solsbury Hill" and "Here Comes The Flood." From his 1978 follow-up are "Games Without Frontiers" and the anthemic "Biko," a tribute to slain South African activist Steven Biko. Culled from his 1980 album, and his third to be self-titled, are "I Don't Remember" and "Family Snapshot."

This is either a clever attempt to make it look like there was a hit or two on PG's second record, or some really bad research, as "Games Without Frontiers" and "Biko" were actually on the third record. The second had "D.I.Y." and "I Go Swimming," not exactly hits, but not bad nonetheless. That said, this looks like a nice little compilation, even if I've got all of his CDs except for that underrepresented second record.
