1	Return of the Grievous Angel: A Tribute to Gram Parsons (1999) more music like this by Various Artists Although he's not as well known outside music circles as Jimi Hendrix or Kurt Cobain, the early death of Gram Parsons was arguably just as great a loss. Parsons' country-rock hybrid became a touchstone for artists from the Rolling Stones to Elvis Costello to the '90s "alternative country" giants Uncle Tupelo and the Jayhawks. In addition to his ... see all copies from $10.58! new only from $12.79!
2	Armed Forces (1979) more music like this by Elvis Costello & the Attraction After releasing and touring the intense This Year's Model, Elvis Costello quickly returned to the studio with the Attractions to record his third album, Armed Forces. In contrast to the stripped-down pop and rock of his first two albums, Armed Forces boasted a detailed and textured pop production, but it was hardly lavish. However, the more ... see all copies from $2.99! new only from $13.34!
3	The Very Best of Elvis Costello and the Attractions (1994) more music like this by Elvis Costello & the Attractions A solid complement to Ryko's Costello reissue series if you don't want to pick up each individual album. Of course, the 22 tracks (drawn from his first 11 albums and, according to the liner notes, "hand-picked by Elvis himself") also sport the crisply remastered sound featured on the rest of the series. The Very Best Of halts abruptly at 1986's ... see all copies from $5.00! new only from $18.95!
4	My Aim Is True (1977) more music like this by Elvis Costello Elvis Costello was as much a pub rocker as he was a punk rocker and nowhere is that more evident than on his debut, My Aim Is True. It's not just that Clover, a San Franciscan rock outfit led by Huey Lewis (absent here), back him here, not the Attractions; it's that his sensibility is borrowed from the pile-driving rock & roll and folksy ... see all copies from $2.99! new only from $13.34!
5	Imperial Bedroom (1982) more music like this by Elvis Costello & the Attractions Having gotten country out of his system with Almost Blue, Elvis Costello returned to pop music with Imperial Bedroom -- and it was pop in the classic, Tin Pan Alley sense. Costello chose to hire Geoff Emerick, who engineered all of the Beatles' most ambitious records, to produce Imperial Bedroom, which indicates what it sounds like -- it's ... see all copies from $5.19! new only from $5.19!
6	The Sopranos: Peppers & Eggs (Music From the HBO Original Series) (2001) more music like this by Original Television Soundtrack At the end of each episode of The Sopranos, a different song plays under the credits. Sometimes the song has been featured elsewhere in the episode, sometimes it is first heard at the end. What the songs have in common is that none of them are mentioned in the credits. Viewers may recognize the familiar ones, a song by Otis Redding, say, or Them's ... see all copies from $9.49! new only from $9.49!
7	All This Useless Beauty (1996) more music like this by Elvis Costello Following his second covers album, Kojak Variety, Elvis Costello set out to assemble a collection of songs he had written for other artists but never recorded himself -- sort of a reverse covers album. As it turned out, that idea was only used as a launching pad -- the resulting album, All This Useless Beauty, is a mixture of nine old and three ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.95!
8	King of America (1986) more music like this by Elvis Costello Stripping away much of the excess that cluttered Punch the Clock and Goodbye Cruel World, Elvis Costello returned to his folk-rock and pub rock roots with King of America, creating one of his most affecting and personal records. Costello literally took on the album as a return to roots, billing himself by his given name Declan MacManus and ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $16.37!
9	Painted from Memory (1998) more music like this by Elvis Costello & Burt Bacharach Elvis Costello and Burt Bacharach first collaborated on "God Give Me Strength," a sweeping ballad that functioned as the centerpiece in Allison Anders' Grace of My Heart. It was a stunning song in the tradition of Bacharach's classic '60s work and it was successful enough that the composers decided to collaborate on a full album, Painted from ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $13.34!
10	Get Happy!! (1980) more music like this by Elvis Costello & the Attractions Get Happy!! was born as much from sincere love for soul as it was for Elvis Costello's desire to distance himself from an unfortunate verbal faux pas where he insulted Ray Charles in an attempt to get Stephen Stills' goat. Either way, it resulted in a 20-song blue-eyed soul tour de force , where Costello doesn't just want to prove his love, he ... see all copies from $3.54! new only from $10.00!
11 view cover	The Delivery Man (2004) more music like this by Elvis Costello & The Imposters Elvis Costello's 21st studio album, The Delivery Man, was intended as a song cycle or a concept album, not that you could ever tell from listening to album. During the prerelease promotion for the album, Costello claimed that he had written a narrative concerning a delivery man in the American South, following him on his journeys and through his ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $4.69!
12 view cover	Songs in the Key of X: Music from and Inspired by 'the X-Files' (1996) more music like this by Various Artists This album purports to be an attempt at recursion by the creator of The X-Files, Chris Carter -- songs inspired by the show that he hopes will provide further inspiration for the show (just as Nick Cave's "Red Right Hand" did for the "Ascension" episode.) Contributions here include Mark Snow, with the title music, the Foo Fighters with a grand ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $9.00!
13 view cover	Live on Letterman: Music from the Late Show (1997) more music like this by Various Artists David Letterman's The Late Show always had a long tradition of excellent musical performances -- indeed, it's one of the few places on American network television where live music thrives -- so the question that surrounds the 1997 release of Live on Letterman: Music from the Late Show isn't why, but why did it take so long? There have been enough ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $7.95!
14 view cover	Blood & Chocolate (1986) more music like this by Elvis Costello & the Attractions Elvis Costello returned to the Attractions as quickly as he abandoned them, hiring the band and old producer Nick Lowe to record Blood & Chocolate, his second record in the span of one year. Where King of America was a stripped-down roots rock affair, Blood & Chocolate is a return to the harder rock of This Year's Model. Occasionally, there are ... see all copies from $2.02! new only from $8.34!
15 view cover	VH1 Storytellers (2000) more music like this by Various Artists Welcome to VH1 Storytellers gathers songs and anecdotes from some of the most popular performers to appear on VH1's intimate performance show, including David Bowie's "China Girl," Dave Matthews' "Crash into Me," Jewel's "Who Will Save Your Soul," and John Mellencamp's "Jack and Diane." Sheryl Crow and Stevie Nicks' duet on "Strong Enough," the ... see all copies from $3.98!
16 view cover	The Very Best of Elvis Costello (2001) more music like this by Elvis Costello Elvis Costello seems to have an aversion to presenting his work in a logical, comprehensive fashion, if the double-disc The Very Best of Elvis Costello is any indication. Like its predecessor, Girls Girls Girls, it sprawls over two discs, with very little regard to chronology or style, baffling and enticing listeners in equal measure. Although ... see all copies from $14.98!
17 view cover	The Sweetest Punch: The Songs of Costello and Bacharach (1999) more music like this by Elvis Costello & Bill Frisell Elvis Costello's collaboration with Burt Bacharach produced the exquisite Painted From Memory, an unabashedly classicist pop album that recalled Bacharach's heyday with Hal David. It was such an individual album, unlike anything in Costello's catalog, that it's a wonder that the same batch of songs could produce another album as equally compelling ... see all copies from $15.33! new only from $15.33!
18 view cover	The River in Reverse (2006) more music like this by Elvis Costello/Allen Toussaint It's impossible to consider The River in Reverse without taking the devastation Hurricane Katrina wreaked upon New Orleans into account. Indeed, it's quite likely that this collaboration between Elvis Costello and Allen Toussaint would not even have occurred if it weren't for that cataclysmic event. They've collaborated before -- Toussaint wrote ... see all copies from $4.95! new only from $16.81!
19 view cover	Almost Blue (1981) more music like this by Elvis Costello & the Attractions Elvis Costello's "country record" is usually written off as a vanity project, but Almost Blue is quite a bit more than that. It's one of the most entertaining cover records in rock & roll, simply because of its enthusiasm. The album begins with a roaring version of Hank Williams' "Why Don't You Love Me" and doesn't stop. Costello sings with ... see all copies from $2.65! new only from $37.53!
20 view cover	When I Was Cruel (2002) more music like this by Elvis Costello Given the flurry of activity from Elvis Costello at the turn of the century -- concerts, guest appearances, reissues, a movie role that was barely seen outside of off-hours on BET -- it's hard to believe that he spent four years without releasing an album of new compositions...and if you don't count the Bacharach collaboration, it's been a full ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $16.53!
21 view cover	This Year's Model (1978) more music like this by Elvis Costello & the Attractions Where My Aim Is True implied punk rock with its lyrics and stripped-down production, This Year's Model sounds like punk. Not that Elvis Costello's songwriting has changed -- This Year's Model is comprised largely of leftovers from My Aim Is True and songs written on the road. It's the music that changed. After releasing My Aim Is True, Costello ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $57.10!
22 view cover	Spike (1989) more music like this by Elvis Costello Throughout his career Elvis Costello has always been prolific; thus it was surprising, even given the change in record labels for the US, when he took a whole 20 months between Blood & Chocolate and this follow-up. But the musical growth he exhibits makes the wait worthwhile. The musical settings range from the stark folk of "Tramp the Dirt Down" ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $11.55!
23 view cover	Trust (1981) more music like this by Elvis Costello & the Attractions Following the frenzied pop-soul of Get Happy!!, Elvis Costello & the Attractions quickly returned to the studio and recorded Trust, their most ambitious and eclectic album to date. As if he were proving his stylistic diversity and sophistication after the concentrated genre experiment of Get Happy!!, Costello assembled Trust as a stylistic tour ... see all copies from $7.00! new only from $7.99!
24 view cover	Mighty Like a Rose (1991) more music like this by Elvis Costello see all copies from $1.99! new only from $3.00!
25 view cover	North [Bonus DVD] [Deutsche Grammophon] (2003) more music like this by Elvis Costello North, Elvis Costello's 20th album of new material, follows the deliberately classicist When I Was Cruel by a mere year, but it feels more the sequel to 1998's Burt Bacharach collaboration, Painted From Memory, or even 1993's roundly ignored classical pop experiment, The Juliet Letters. Costello has abandoned clanging guitars and drums of Cruel -- ... see all copies from $14.99!
