Peter Gabriel's first album in seven years is a Bob Ezrin-produced orchestral covers collection called Scratch My Back. It reportedly features reinterpretations of the folks mentioned above along with Elbow, the Kinks, Talking Heads, Lou Reed, David Bowie, and Neil Young. It's being called a "song swap," which implies some artists will also cover Gabriel, or each other, though we don't have all the details just yet. We do have a video of Gabriel and a string section doing Paul Simon's "Boy In The Bubble," before which he explains the project and introduces collaborator John Metcalfe, who's said (at Gabriel's site) that the album is acoustic, sans guitars, drums or "world instruments." So, many strings. This take on the Graceland opener happened at the WOMAD festival in July. We also have a possible Scratch My Back tracklist, but you know how those things go.Continue reading Peter Gabriel's Scratch My Back Features Arcade Fire, Radiohead, Bon Iver Covers...
