Peter Gabriel covers, gets covered
Peter Gabriel is releasing an album of covers on Feb 15th. Titled Scratch My Back, it will include covers of tracks from indie band heavyweights from Arcade Fire, Radiohead, and The Magnetic Fields to Bon Iver and David Bowie.
The twist is that these artists will, in turn, cover some Peter Gabriel songs on a future album. Covers of favorites are no guarantee of quality, but hit that first link for a preview of Gabriel's cover of Arcade Fire's "My Body is a Cage" and a tracklist; count me intrigued.
