I number myself amongst those very few who would be very keen on an official release of the GL. However I always presumed that as the songs were co-written and that as the two writers having parted somewhat accrimoniously (rumour) the sticking point was that an agreement by both parties was require...

Terry Hall of The Specials dies aged 63 https://twitter.com/ElvisCostello/status/1605000370866257921 Sad to receive the news of Terry Hall’s passing last night from Lynval Golding.

Steven Thomas Erlewine's list of the Best New Albums of 2022 has The Boy Named If at #4 and The Resurrection of Rust at #42.

Slightly confusing? So is one CD simply a 'best of' of Burt Bacharach? 1: Painted From Memory 2: Taken From Life - mostly covers versions, together with Look Now songs + 3 newly recorded EC songs 3: live songs - I assume all E.C. 4: Best of Burt. Not clear who sings these? the riginal recordings? I...

Universal Music Japan published and then apparently deleted a track listing for The Boy Named If (Alive At Memphis Magnetic) and a release date of November 25. It was on this page that can still be accessed via Google Cache. It showed "a digital deluxe album" with the 13 songs from the ori...

EC and Jorge Drexler played Drexler's song "Tocarte." EC sang mostly in English and played a guitar solo.

"Tocarte" went on to win both song and record of the year. EC was seen sitting in the front row when Drexler accepted.

True! The Magnificent Hurt remix was part of the pre-show music in August.

I heard this terrific duo called Kimiko and we invited them to rework 'Magnificent Hurt'. It turns out this is Chelmico, not Kimiko. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chelmico Last year EC praised Chelmico's "very cool theme song" for the TV series Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken! https://www.yo...

Here's the quote from Uncut: "And we've got another record! It's The Boy Named If (Alive At Memphis Magnetic) . We have two recording sessions, one from last October, when The Imposters first played the songs from The Boy Named If live together, and another session in May. We started playing so...

Does "entirely different" mean entirely different from all his other albums? Or just from The Boy Named If?

Tommy McLain performed "I Ran Down Every Dream" on The Late Late Show With James Corden with C.C. Adcock singing EC's part.
