In 1986, Peter Gabriel released one of his most successful songs, "Sledgehammer". The music video, directed by Stephen R. Johnson, is particularly famous for its use of stop-motion animation and claymation techniques. The song itself is an ode to the soul music of the 1960s, and specifically the work of Otis Redding, whom Gabriel has cited as a major influence. In fact, it was after attending one of Redding's concerts that Gabriel was inspired to pursue a career in music. "Sledgehammer" features a catchy horn riff and a funky rhythm section that perfectly captures the spirit of classic soul.
