All Grown Up, How To Be Dumb, So Like Candy and Couldn’t Call It Unexpected are four of his very greatest. The only disappointment for me was that the tour was kin...

Re: Costello & Nieve: 15 songs from 50 years, Leeds (UK), Sept 2 & 3, 2024

So, I have to purchase 2 tickets if I want to hear all 30 songs over the course of one evening ?!? Er….ok. By way of contrast, I enjoyed The Stranglers play a 29 song set at the Nottingham Concert Hall last night including a welcome 30 minute interval. ALL tickets priced at £40.00, front rows to ba...

Easy one for me. https://www.elviscostello.info/wiki/index.php?title=Concert_2013-09-16_New_York September 16, 2013, the Wise Up Ghost album premiere concert at the tiny Brooklyn Bowl in Brooklyn, NY.

Largely the same set list as Madrid, except take out the two Face in the Crowd Songs, Dio Come Ti Amo, and Cowards, and add The Whirlwind, The Birds Will Still Be Singing, and I Want You.

We can all agree that Punch the Clock doesn't belong anywhere near this list (although I still love it).

- ‘Hey Clock[face]’ – This isn’t an album that I regularly listen to, but hearing ‘Newspaper Pane’ ‘We’ Are All Cowards Now’ and ‘I Do (Zula’s Song)’ live, I’ll go back to this album soon. I'm in the distinct minority, but I think Hey Clockface is one of his finest albums. I include Shut Him Down a...
