"Anstatt klassische Coverversionen aufzunehmen, fand ich es interessanter
eine neue Art Projekt zu schaffen, in dem Künstler sich austauschen und
ein Geben und Nehmen herrscht, zum Beispiel spiele ich einen Song von
dir und du einen von mir. Scratch My Back - And I'll Scratch Yours."
Peter Gabriel schuf mit seinem Album "Scratch My Back / And I'll
Scratch Yours" eben diesen Austausch. Gabriel und weitere Künstler
interpretieren Songs anderer Künstler jeweils neu.
Die erste Hälfte dieses Doppel-Albums, "Scratch My Back" genannt, wurde original im Jahr 2010 veröffentlicht. Peter Gabriel covert Songs diverser etablierter Künstler, zum Beispiel David Bowie, Paul Simon und Lou Reed, nimmt sich aber auch Werke jüngerer Bands, wie Arcade Fire, Bon Iver oder
Radiohead, vor und interpretiert deren Arbeit neu.
Viele dieser Künstler konnten im Jahr 2013 erhebliche Erfolge verbuchen. Nun
erwiderten diese Peter Gabriels Projekt, indem sie seine Titel covern.
Einige entschieden sich, originalgetreue Coverversionen zu schaffen, andere
wiederum schufen Neuinterpretationen, die nur entfernt an das Original
erinnern. So zum Beispiel Lou Reeds "Solsbury Hill" oder die neurotische,
futuristische Version von "Mother Of Violence", neu interpretiert von
Brian Eno, der auch als Co-Writer für Bowies "Heroes" agierte,
welches Gabriel ebenfalls auf "Scratch My Back" covert.
Neben den genannten Künstlern leisten auch weitere ihren Beitrag zu dem Album,
darunter Arcade Fire("Games Without Frontiers"), Elbow ("Mercy
Street") und Regina Spektor ("Blood Of Eden").
Product Information
"Rather than make a traditional covers record, I thought it would be much more fun to create a new type of project in which artists communicated with each other and swapped a song for a song, i. e. you do one of mine and I'll do one of yours, hence the title - Scratch My Back - And I'll Scratch Yours." Peter Gabriel, 2013 Scratch My Back. And I'll Scratch Yours is a series of song exchanges in which Gabriel and other leading artists reinterpret each other's songs. The first half of this double album, titled Scratch My Back, was originally released in 2010. Gabriel covers work by seasoned superstars like David Bowie, Paul Simon and Lou Reed, but he also took on marvelous interpretations of work by younger acts like Arcade Fire, Bon Iver and Radiohead. In 2013, most of these artists returned the favour on. And I'll Scratch Yours. The reciprocating artists opted for differing approaches to Peter's songs. A few chose to radically reinterpret the original material, in the process leaving it barely recognisable - Lou Reed's snarling "Solsbury Hill" or the frighteningly futuristic version of "Mother Of Violence" by Brian Eno, co-writer of David Bowie's "Heroes" covered by Gabriel on Scratch My Back. Other contributors include Arcade Fire ("Games Without Frontiers"), Elbow ("Mercy Street") and Regina Spektor ("Blood Of Eden").
