• ALMT-MM: Peter Gabriel scratches some backs

  February 8th, 2010

  On ALMT-Music Mondays I write about music.

  I feel like I discovered several goldmines today, so I’ll try to get through them as succinctly as possible.

  First: Peter Gabriel rocks.  Ok, I already knew this.  But what I recently discovered is on 2/16 the man is putting out “Scratch My Back” an indie rock/orchestral cover album featuring such artists as David Bowie, Elbow, Talking Heads, Regina Spektor and Paul Simon. The artists in turn will cover a Gabriel song for the follow-up album “I’ll Scratch Yours.”

  I downloaded his rendition of Arcade Fire’s “My Body Is a Cage” and if this is a taste of things to come, then I’m first in line to buy the album.

  Next up: Where to listen to the latest finds from the top music blogs on the internet…all in one place?
