Re: EC to release his next album in Code?

Billboard.com has posted more details, some erroneous (see bold) and has confirmed the tracklist I can't think of a time when Billboard's go-to Elvis correspondent hasn't posted a news item rife with spelling, grammatical or factual errors. It's like he's so excited to share the news he stumbles ov...

Re: Letter from Attorney and Deletion of Posts

As an occiasional poster (but constant reader) here, I have to admit I've taken a lot of the Spooky efforts for granted. I've become accustomed to this forum as a constant entity, and I can't imagine where I'd get my fix without it. I'll try to do more of my part to help keep it afloat.

Me too. I really hope he did this for money, and not for any affection towards the band.

Re: 'Elvis Costello (Icons of Pop Music)' - book

I procured this via eBay recently, and slogged through it. I'm sure if it were edited better (i.e. more like a record guide and less like a dissertation) I might have enjoyed it more. There are some nuggets of insight here and there, but it's not an easy read.

Re: U2 Announces Joshua Tree Reissue

Amazon in the US (dunno about the UK or elsewhere) is promoting a box set edition of the first three expanded albums ("with room for a fourth") for just over $60. Of course, it's already been delayed, but those wishing to save money might be well recommended to got for them in bulk.

Re: More devastating Tramp the Dirt Down or Where Is the Love?

I always thought Tramp The Dirt Down was pretty blunt, though I've never heard whether Maggie had any thought about it. As for Where Is The Love, I'm sure even if Bush has heard it, he wouldn't guess, consider or even admit it was about him.
