Rockpile, Seconds of Pleasure, 1980 on Columbia
This is Rockpile’s one and only studio album released under their name in 1980. The band includes Dave Edmunds, Nick Lowe, Billy Bremner and Terry Williams – though other material from Rockpile’s repertoire would come out under the name of Dave Edmunds or Nick Lowe solo albums.
The whole constellation of Nick Lowe / Dave Edmunds / Elvis Costello / Brinsley Schwarz created some really amazing music – pub rock is the label sometimes attached but that can be a bit limiting.
My copy—via La Fin Du Vinyle in Montréal Québec— is a Canadian pressing (Manufactured by CBS Records Canada Ltd).

Dave Edmunds (Rockpile) - Twangin’
And here ends the Rockpile saga. They were in the process of exploding during the making of this album, and don’t appear on all tracks. (The Stray Cats back him on one…)
Still a good record, but definitely tilting heavily Edmunds, and it’s probably the last really good album he made, unfortunately.
Well, Rockpile had an exceptional run…and the players continued to matter later.

"Get It" by Dave Edmunds released in April 1977.
#DaveEdmunds #GetIt #VintageVinyl -
Squeeze, East Side Story, 1981 on A&M
Squeeze’s fourth studio LP, between 1980’s Argybargy and 1982’s Sweets from a Stranger. This was the first album after Jools Holland departed, replaced by Paul Carrack, who provided lead vocals on “Tempted.”
Produced by Elvis Costello and Roger Bechirian, except for “In Quintessence” which was produced by Dave Edmunds.
My copy, via Academy Records in NYC, is a 1981 Terre Haute pressing (note the “Y” code to the left of the side markers on the labels).

Rockpile - Seconds of Pleasure
Not my original copy, but the new Yep Roc release, cut by Kevin Gray.
Nick Lowe, Dave Edmunds and Rockpile were absolutely tearing it up in the late 70s and early 80s, with Edmunds’ 3 solos, Nick Lowe’s two (so good), this Rockpile LP, Carlene Carter, etc.
Every one is terrific…this is the only one released as Rockpile. Snag the new cut if you can - it’s great.

One of the unresolved mysteries of the 1980's Neo-#Rockabilly (at least for me):
#StrayCats had "Crawl up and Die" on their famous self-named debut record produced by #DaveEdmunds.
And the #GuanaBatz had "Please Gimme Something" on "Held down to vinyl... at last", one of their best albums IMHO.
So who of them covered a track from the 50's, and who took the hookline and created new lyrics?
@ProfessorMichaelT Any idea?

Dave Edmunds - Repeat When Necessary
As you may recall, Rockpile put out a bunch of records during their brief lifespan mostly not under the Rockpile name. Here's one of Edmunds' two.
This starts out with the one-two punch of Girls Talk (Elvis Costello) and Crawling from the Wreckage (Graham Parker) - Edmunds wasn't much of a songwriter, but he was an great interpreter & player.

Dave Edmunds - Live at the Capitol Theater, May 15, 1982
This sounds like it was a radio broadcast; I may have even listened to it on WBUR.
The band explodes out of the gate with Crawling from the Wreckage, a terrific Graham Parker song, and keeps the energy up across all four sides, doing the roots/pub rock you'd expect from Edmunds.
Not a great recording, but you get the idea, and it must have been a great concert.

#DaveEdmunds is one of the #Rocknroll and #Rockabilly godfathers. The #StrayCats and the #PoleCats are only a few acts he has produced in the early #80s.
But some of Dave's own songs undoubtly have the typical #ELO sound, thus I am not sure whether #JeffLynne was more in charge of producing than Dave himself. Sure, both are Welsh, just like #ShakinStevens.
