Listen to this track, the closing song on 1980's Get Happy!!, recorded quickly after a dreary American tour and with a pile of Northern Soul 45s as a means to create it. Yet, there were other forces that helped to make this particular track - scandal! Picture the scene in a Columbus Ohio hotel bar, with a well-in-the-bag Costello, along with Attractions bassist Bruce Thomas, as well as members of Stephen Stills' band, including one Bonnie Bramlett. As such, we have something of the old guard in Stills' party, argubly 60s hippy remnants at somewhat of a descending arc by 1979. To contrast, Elvis ... Read Full Story

Recently I’ve been trying to expand my musical collection with a lot of artists/bands that I’ve had on my radar for a while and just haven’t explored as in depth as I would like.

Elvis Costello Hosts Spectacle On The Sundance Channel A few days ago – actually it was the night I returned home from my whirlwind trip to Reunionpalooza in California – I got an email from my friend Jamie inviting me to go see Elvis Costello with her at the Apollo Theater in Harlem.
