Peter Gabriel - Scratch My Back (Special Edition) 2010

Virgin Records / EMI | Cover | Released: 15 February 2010

& 8220;

With only a few moments to go until the release of 'Scratch My Back' on February 15th 2010, details have escaped the studio. The album features Peter's recordings of Heroes (David Bowie), The Boy in the Bubble (Paul Simon), Mirrorball (Elbow), Flume (Bon Iver), Listening Wind (Talking Heads), The Power of the Heart (Lou Reed), My Body is a Cage (Arcade Fire), The Book of Love (The Magnetic Fields), I Think it's Going to Rain Today (Randy Newman), Après Moi (Regina Spektor), Philadelphia (Neil Young) and Street Spirit (Fade Out) (Radiohead).

Peter describes this as a very personal record with the twelve songs performed only with orchestral instruments and voice. To help craft the recording Peter enlisted John Metcalfe as arranger, the expertise of producer Bob Ezrin (Pink Floyd's 'The Wall', Lou Reed's 'Berlin') and the engineer, mixer and producer Tchad Blake (Suzanne Vega, Sheryl Crow, Tom Waits).

'Scratch My Back' was recorded at George Martin's Air Lyndhurst Studios and the Real World Temple with further editing back at Real Worlds Studios in Wiltshire.

After a seven year hiatus, the legendary Peter Gabriel releases 'Scratch My Back' - a collection of classically orchestrated covers of material by acts such as Elbow, Lou Reed, Neil Young and David Bowie, amongst many other esteemed artists. Dubbed by Gabriel as a 'swap shop of songs' and produced by Bob Ezrin (Pink Floyd, Alice Cooper), this is a beautifulacoustic album, boasting nothing more than the accompaniment of lush strings and Gabriel's distinctive voice. Includes unique versions of 'Heroes', 'The Boy In The Bubble' and 'Waterloo Sunset'.

There are several rather familiar songs that Peter interprets on Scratch My Back. Aside from The Boy In The Bubble, he revisits David Bowie's Heroes, Radiohead's Street Spirit (Fade Out) and Randy Newman's I Think It's Going To Rain Today. But the songbooks of artists who've only emerged in the last few years have also been drawn from, among them Arcade Fire (for My Body Is A Cage) and Bon Iver (Flume).

The project is groundbreaking for two reasons. Firstly, it's a collaboration. All the artists whose songs Peter has recorded here are returning the favour by each recording a song of his. The fruits of this exchange - or song swap - will be heard on a forthcoming companion volume, I'll Scratch Yours. "The intention," explains Peter, "was that we would each do the songs in our own idiosyncratic way."

Secondly, these songs have been approached from an angle that's rather revolutionary. Peter's usual band have been dispensed with on this project, leaving his voice accompanied solely by orchestral instruments. The approach makes for some radical reinterpretations. "After all," protests the album's arranger John Metcalfe, "what's the point of covers that don't make any effort- So many are just really the same song with a different singer. Here was an opportunity - particularly as it was orchestral - not to do that, to reinterpret these songs with integrity."
