THE COSTELLO SHOW "king of America" cd, 1986:
continuing with my Elvis Costello listens....
Elvis' tenth studio set and my favourite of his...
also contains my favourite track of his, "indoor fireworks"...
usually I would put Elvis in alternative but "easy listening" is apt here...
some country, folk, bluegrass, jazzy blues and a couple of uptempo tracks
in the usual Costello sound....
T-Bone Burnett plays on, and co produced the album with Costello...
an excellent cover on here, Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood ...
a brilliant album, worth hearing if youre a fan and if youre not a fan,
its worth it for the intelligent lyrics if nothing else...
from the album, my all time favourite track of his, the greatest "break up" song of all time IMO!
