201,000 copies. That's strange. He is selling at the rate of Saves the Day and Glassjaw. It thus proves the point that Elvis Costello is an underground favorite with cult followers (was this ever in doubt- Rock N' Roll Hall Of Fame inductions aside?). Do you guys think that the next album will sell...

Il Sogno is just an instrumental (orchestral) score. Expect no singing of EC. What troubles me more is that HMV only talks of a single disc. What happened to the promised bonusdisc with the orchestral songs to be recorded at the North Sea Jazz Festival? And one more puzzling thing: his official webs...

Just been listening to a tape of this show, and it's incredible. Their Meltdown collaboration appeared fairly promptly, hopefully this will too. Elvis really is on fire these days. If this any indicator of things to come, the album in the autumn will be a new high. When I read the setlist, I was a ...

Damn, have spent the weekend misssing stuff on TV! Would have liked to have seen this, especially to have a look at Pete ('brushwork on North so ethereal it almost doesn't exist') Erskine. I have seen it, and yes, Pete Erskine was great. Although I'm not a musician (or drummer), I could see that he...

Wow, I never thought that I would like the new DK album
Bought The Girl In The Other Room yesterday and I'm completely overwhelmed by it. I bought The Look Of Love a few months ago and I didn't liked it at all: too much slickness, no real emotion, bad choices of covers! But The Girl is something completely different: great singing, real emotion, good cho...

Which songs will EC&I play in Oxford?
We may have only a few hours before the first reports from Oxford will come in, so maybe we could try to guess which songs EC&I will play there. Although he played a lot of 'Deliveryman' - songs during the last concerts of the North- American tour, I think they are not that suitable for the Impo...
