  1. Elvis Costello and The Attractions, Armed Forces, 1979 on Columbia

    Costello's third LP and second with The Attractions (but the first to credit them on the cover). My favorites here are "Oliver's Army" and of course "(What's So Funny 'Bout) Peace, Love and Understanding" (forgiving the lack of an Oxford comma). Produced by Nick Lowe, who famously wrote the latter. My copyβ€”via Vinyl Vault in Littleton MAβ€”is a Pitman pressing from 1979 with (as expected) the US cover. In the UK, the initial release (on Radar Records) has the painting of the elephants on […]

  25. "Fantasy" - Earth, Wind & Fire

    Live performance video, sent in via a clip from the Encarta CD-ROM.

    "(I don't want to go to) Chelsea" - Elvis Costello

    Blue is the colour. Do you think he bumped into celebrity fans like Gary Numan down the 'bridge?

    (listens closely to the lyric)

    David Mellor, more likely.

  34. Elvis Costello and The Attractions, Imperial Bedroom, 1982 on Columbia

    Seventh studio LP from Costello and the sixth with The Attractions, out of F-Beat in the UK and Columbia in the US. A must have for collectors of Costello or indeed the whole new wave / alternative era of the late seventies to mid eighties.

    My copy – direct from the artist at a show at the Cabot Theatre in Beverly MA with Steve Nieve β€” is a recent reissue by UMe, who now handle Costello’s catalog.

  35. I work alone because I’m a stone cold bitch.

    I did my first show in my new hometown, the other day. Everything about it was scary--namely because I know, having done this for many years, that I am damned if I do, and damned if I don't. If I do a bad job, I'm ashamed and no one takes me seriously. If I do a good job, it will piss off any number of people. I have never, ever, once, in my entire life, done something good that did not come with some people having hurt feelings about it. When you are singing songs about feeling suicidal or […]

  37. "(What's So Funny 'Bout) Peace, Love, and Understanding" is a 1974 song written by English singer/songwriter #NickLowe. Initially released by Lowe with his band Brinsley Schwarz on their 1974 album #TheNewFavouritesOfBrinsleySchwarz, the song was released as a single and did not chart. The song was most famously covered by #ElvisCostello and #theAttractions, who recorded a version of the song that was released as a B-side to Lowe's 1978 solo single "American Squirm".

  38. At record swaps I tend to go for the $2 items dumped loosely into cardboard boxes and stashed under the table. I’ll pass on the $50 Necros β€œConquest for Death” LP, though. As an aside, check out the Rock β€˜n’ Roll Flea Market at Faction Brewing in Alameda if you have an opportunity. #Cassettes #ElvisCostello #FlohMarkt #NewWave #NinaHagen #RecordSwap #Tapes
