Peter Gabriel Scratch My Back

"[T]his imaginatively selected and sequenced collection achieves such a haunting consistency of tone that its spell lingers..."
"[Each song is] transformed into an arty dirge using only his voice and an understated orchestra....A nicely melancholy suite." -- Grade: B
4 stars out of 5 -- "[P]erhaps the most effective retread is Talking Heads' 'Listening Wind': Gabriel removes the funk, parks the dance, and leaves the words to do the work....It sounds like a timeless song, written yesterday."
Billboard - "He treats David Bowie's 'Heroes' with shimmering strings and Paul Simon's 'Boy in the Bubble' as a mellow piano ballad."
Ranked #46 in Mojo's "The 50 Best Albums Of 2010" -- "His covers projects tapped four decades of the power of love and transformation..."
