Peter Gabriel is the second studio album by the English singer-songwriter Peter Gabriel, released on 2 June 1978 by Charisma Records. Gabriel started recording the album in November 1977, the same month that he had completed touring in support of his debut solo release. He employed former King Crimson guitarist Robert Fripp, who was part of Gabriel's early touring band, to produce the album. Fripp used his Frippertronics effects on the co-written song "Exposure". The album's cover artwork by Hipgnosis led to it becoming known as Scratch to differentiate it from Gabriel's other eponymously titled albums. The album reached No. 10 on the UK Albums Chart and No. 45 on the US Billboard Pop Albums chart. Unlike Gabriel's previous release, his second album did not produce any charting singles, with "D.I.Y." failing to chart during both its original release in May 1978 and re-release in September later that year.
