My Aim Is True

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 ...

Bridge School Concerts, Vol. 1

Bridge School Concerts, Vol. 1 (1997) more music like this

by Various Artists

Neil Young and his wife Pegi established the Bridge School -- an organization designed to help develop communication for children who have severe speech and physical disabilities -- in the mid-'80s and every year, they held a fund-raising acoustic concert for the foundation. These concerts became famous for the richness and diversity of artists, ...

The Best of Elvis Costello: The First 10 Years

The Best of Elvis Costello: The First 10 Years (2007) more music like this

by Elvis Costello

Six years after the commencement of a major Elvis Costello reissue campaign at Rhino, his catalog transferred over to Universal, which had been releasing new Elvis music since 1998's Painted from Memory. Like every one of his previous two big catalog shifts -- a campaign with Rykodisc/Demon in 1994, a jump to Rhino in 2001 -- the 2007 series is ...

The Very Best of Elvis Costello and the Attractions

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 ...

Woodstock 1999

Woodstock 1999 (1999) more music like this

by Various Artists

The 25th anniversary of Woodstock was such a resounding success, both commercially and critically, that it was inevitable that Woodstock 99 would appear on the 30th anniversary of the legendary free rock festival. Woodstock 99 was a different beast than any of its predecessors, however. The promoters designed it as a mercenary event, trying to ...

Acoustic

Acoustic (1992) more music like this

by Everything But the Girl

Acoustic presents two side projects in one. The first half of it consists of Everything but the Girl's covers of six songs by other contemporary performers. The second half contains two live recordings and four re-recordings of songs from Everything but the Girl's repertoire. All of the songs are performed with spare, acoustic instrumentation. The ...

The Best of Elvis Costello & the Attractions (1985) more music like this

by Elvis Costello & the Attractions

Covering nearly all of Elvis Costello's hits prior to 1985, this album picks songs off of My Aim Is True, Imperial Bedroom, Trust, This Year's Model, Armed Forces, Get Happy!!, and a couple others. For those that simply want a taste of Costello, this album is probably the best-fitted for any reasonable purpose. All of the necessary songs are ...

The Very Best of Elvis Costello

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 ...

My Aim Is True [Deluxe Edition]

My Aim Is True [Deluxe Edition] (2007) more music like this

by Elvis Costello

Given that Universal's 2007 deluxe edition is the third expanded reissue of My Aim Is True, it is a reasonable question to ask whether hardcore fans need to bother with buying the album for a fourth time (or a fifth or sixth, depending how many LPs wore out before CDs) -- to ask whether this double-disc reissue offers anything that the previous ...

Girls Girls Girls (1989) more music like this

by Elvis Costello

Elvis Costello assembled this compilation himself. It is highly idiosyncratic, not the least of its peculiarities being that the CD and cassette versions differ considerably. Costello describes a vague concept in his notes, but the collection of songs (47 on the CDs, 51 on the cassettes) seems a jumble. At least he demonstrates that songs from ...

The Stiff Records Box Set (1992) more music like this

by Various Artists

Stiff Records was a maverick among British independent record labels, partially responsible for starting the punk and new wave revolution of the late '70s. Under the guidance of house producer Nick Lowe, Stiff turned out an enormous number of seminal punk and new wave singles in their first years, including classic tracks by the Damned, Elvis ...

The Best of Holly Cole (2000) more music like this

by Holly Cole

As leader of the Holly Cole Trio, the smoky-voiced jazz chanteuse has created an impressive catalog over the last decade with her longtime cohorts Aaron Davis (piano) and David Piltch (string bass), seamlessly mixing blues, pop, and jazz. This collection gathers tunes which allow the sultry singer to stand out above sparse yet often playful ...

Almost You: The Songs of Elvis Costello (2002) more music like this

by Various Artists

Amazingly, with the flood of tribute records that has washed over record stores in the past few years, this is the first newly recorded tribute to the songs of Elvis Costello. The 15 artists and bands are strictly indie rock, many of them from the American south. Most of the tracks they cover are from Costello's early salad days as an angry young ...

2½ Years (1993) more music like this

by Elvis Costello & the Attractions

Rykodisc launched its Elvis Costello reissue series with 2½ Years, a box set featuring his first three albums together with the previously promotional-only Live at the El Mocambo, which is only available in the box. Costello fans know the studio albums by heart and will be pleased by the remastering and bonus tracks, while the highly sought-after ...

Metroland (1999) more music like this

by Mark Knopfler

Mark Knopfler's fine soundtrack to the film Metroland nicely evokes the picture's wistful, nostalgic atmosphere. Rounding out the collection are late-'70s classics from Dire Straits ("Sultans of Swing"), Elvis Costello ("Alison") and the Stranglers ("Peaches"), in addition to left-field inclusions like Françoise Hardy's "Tous Les Garcons et Les ...

The Ultimate Singer-Songwriter Collection (2003) more music like this

by Various Artists

When one thinks of the singer/songwriter style of popular music, one thinks inevitably of the defining artists of the early '70s: James Taylor, Carole King, Joni Mitchell, Cat Stevens, Jackson Browne, etc. None of these names appear on The Ultimate Singer-Songwriter Collection, which tends to call the claim made by that title into question. But in ...
