Peter Gabriel ‘And I’ll Scratch Yours’ Album To Feature Paul Simon & Other Artists

As part of an ongoing song exchange with other artists, Peter Gabriel covered Paul’s song “The Boy in the Bubble” on his 2010 covers record, Scratch My Back. Now, Paul’s interpretation of Peter’s protest song “Biko,” about South African anti-apartheid activist Stephen Biko, is set to be released on the companion album, And I’ll Scratch Yours.

In addition to Paul’s contribution of “Biko,” there are renditions of Peter Gabriel’s music from David Byrne, Brian Eno, Lou Reed, Bon Iver, Randy Newman, Arcade Fire, and more.

Scratch My Back / And I’ll Scratch Yours will be available as a digi-pack double-CD, or And I’ll Scratch Yours as a single-disc CD, on September 23 (US date to be confirmed).
