Always been a Peter Gabriel fan but loved this album especially. Discovered it while watching Stranger Things and falling in love with the song Hero. One person found this helpful.

What may be a shock is that Gabriel chose to follow 2002’s Up with a covers album but, like all of his work, this 2010 record is highly conceptual no matter how minimal the end result may be. Designed as the first half of a two-part project where Gabriel would cover 12 different artists who would then return the favor by recording their own versions of Gabriel’s compositions - the counterpart album naturally bearing the title I’ll Scratch Yours - Scratch My Back divides neatly between six songs from his peers (Bowie, Paul Simon, Randy Newman

Scratch My Back Tracklist. The first part of Peter’s song-swap project. Originally conceived as a reciprocal arrangement that would be released as one album it was Peter’s half that arrived first, in 2010, featuring his orchestral interpretations of some of his favourite songs. It was titled Scratch My Back. The second part, featuring artists covering Peter’s songs was aptly named And I’ll Scratch Yours and followed in 2013. Here, Peter takes up the story behind the original concept and takes us through each of the tracks on Scratch My Back. Scratch My Back Q&A.
