ELVIS COSTELLO, THE CROONER
Categories: Uncategorized

Time:

Kojak Variety might be Elvis Costello’s covers album but it is gems such as God Give Me Strength and The Very Thought Of You that show the man can be a dapper crooner as well.

ELVIS COSTELLO & THE ATTRACTIONS
with guests Marc Ribot and James Burton
London 1995 [no label, 2CD]
Live at Shepherds Bush Empire, London, May 17, 1995. Very good pre-FM.

Hi UB

Yeah I've got this one - probably via those nice DIMEsters, if you send me a PM with your current address then I'll send you a copy.

Take care
