Elvis Costello Fan Forum

From a distance, looking at the set lists etc., it seems that there is nothing much especially new with these shows. Is that true? Seems repetitive to a certain degree. No break-out venturing? Seems still kind-of 'stuck.'? not so jardine. with the volume of long unplayed songs, the eight or so chan...

I lived in Toronto at the time and that concert was broadcast on FM radio -- i think CHUM-FM??? I taped it on cassette at the time...

MOOT, I love your forensic analysis of the evidence. But part of me expects an unheralded splurge (bad choice of words) of new songs unrelated to other projects. Apart from maybe 'You Shouldn't Look at Me', which I think will be on the new album. That said, do albums even exist anymore? 'You Should...

So, how exactly does this release 'support indie record stores' if it is in a format that many can't play [correction, maybe just me], and there is a limited number? I guess it reminds me that record store day is near, but there are no record stores near.

I sort-of 'get' the vinyl fetish and feel the remorse over the loss of record stores, but these releases simply mean that, after 41 years of listening, songs keep getting released in ways that i can't ever access.

Okay, fine, fine. Remember to breath. That's it. Good.

Ahhhhhhh! Might just be rehearsals for the upcoming shows, but that lovely tangled board of wires seems to say otherwise? Certainly makes me understand how much I miss the guy(s).

in the old days, that would mean that there is a flipside we haven't heard!!!!

(think it's just a mock up, though).

you shouldn't look at me

listening again, the strings sound a bit like something from the julliet letters???

(thnks, s.p.,for moving this and a face... over to these threads). I like the "damn well" vehemence of this because i agree, these songs and others he's been writing and hoarding/holding back, or whatever this odd time has been... well, yes, let them out into the world and let them free ra...

missed this when it was first posted. have to say that he sounds clear and young and strong on this...and i love the strings!!! and yep, i heard a bit of MAIT era as well...

Watching that video, I thought of how Elvis and Diana could get into a studio and he could quickly record all these new tunes that are floating around. Even a sort of live in the studio kind of thing (with a video). I can imagine how wonderful her piano elaborations/improv would be cool. Even video ...

nice! i still find that on live clips he sings flat now and then?! not sure if i'm hearing it incorrectly or what, or if it is an issue of how it is recording -- the sort of hollow boomy sound, etc....

what does that mean nowadays, "releasing a single?" used to mean there was a flip side to anticipate, or further tracks on a cd, or at least an object to purchase. is it just a download, then? if so, my own terrible afflictions regarding this method of 'release' deprive me once again. stil...

that's probably it.

yep, it's gone. so, will there be a soundtrack released or some other format?

I suffer from the same affliction, so very empathetic!

Please edit as needed. Loving this more on every listen. Neil, don't worry. it will appear eventually. i'd help if i could. Am I fine, am I pleasing? Are you fitting in [?], or are you teasing? You shouldn’t look at me You shouldn’t look at me that way Should a glance from you just see through me? I...

plays in Canada

i'm finding that the link works sort of every second time. can't download. almost a bit of a Bacharach "sort" of song. very long winding melody line, great strings, great emotion...must listen again...reminders of both "painted from memory" and "she." "Don't take m...

it is up!!

beautiful acoustic bass guitar, in fact. nice.
