Essential EC / 5
As some of the other reviewers have pointed out, its incredibly hard to really pick a "best" EC album between '77 and '86 simply because the man just made some remarkably amazing music. Whats interesting to note about this record is that it followed "Taking Liberties"/"Ten Bloody Marys.." (a collection of b-sides) and "Get Happy!" (an homage to soul). So is this really Costello's fourth album? Theres no denying, its musically closer to the first three releases and by god its really damn good. Theres a few tracks I'm not so hot on like "Shot with his own gun" but the rest is gold. The lyrical maturity shows on tracks like "You'll never be a man", and "Sad about girls" is one the best songs ever left off an album. Listen to this album, weep with joy.
Song "Busy Bodies"
So you think that you have seen her
When you're lying in between her
And you tell me that you don't care
Busy bodies getting nowhere
Ev'rybody's getting meaner
Busy bodies
Caught in the concertina
You check her outline
Break her regulations
You watch her legs through several
Service stations
Busy bodies
Very busy
Getting nowhere
Nowhere, nowhere, nowhere
Now you're ready for the merger
With the company you're part of
And you do the dirty business
With your latest sleeping partner
You're becoming
Automatic
Busy bodies
Out playing with the traffic
You want attention
You try my patience
With the best intentions you are nothing but a nuisance
Busy bodies
Busy busy
Getting nowhere
Nowhere, nowhere, nowhere
Now you've given your performance
Though the matinee was idle
And you find that a wave of her right hand
Could seem so tidal
Just a second
Satisfaction
Busy bodies
Temporarily out of action
You wash and brush up
You want to dress up
You want to kiss her
But she's busy with her makeup
Busy bodies
Very busy
Getting nowhere
Nowhere (x6)

New album punches up performer's typical style (The Daily Texan)
Sondre Lerche is a gentleman. His talent is mind-boggling, and despite having shared a stage with the likes of Elvis Costello and fellow Norwegians a-ah, the 22 year old is the sweetest and most self-possessed rocker you'll ever meet. The DT Weekend interviewed Lerche by phone from his U.S. abode in New York.
RECENT ITEMS (Filter Magazine)
Now that he?s received some free publicity from The Fratellis? debut album Costello Music, Elvis Costello has seen fit to announce a ten-date US tour with his band The Imposters . He?ll also be playing a one off show with Rosanna Cash on April 13th at New York's Rubin Museum of Art which is apparently going to be an "all acoustic musical talk show, drawing on the theme of magic numbers.?

Notes From Underground (Blogcritics.org)
On my last Notes dispatch, I was chided by someone who felt that I lived in a parallel universe for thinking that Bob Dylan and Elvis Costello were ?Underground.? His criticism was fair, so I tried picking artists that were a bit less recognizable. Also though, the term ?underground? is subjective?and I know neither of the aforementioned artists should be considered ?underground??but all the ...
Sondre Lerche: Live from SXSW (Minnesota Public Radio)
Sondre Lerche claims his latest album, Phantom Punch, is "an Orange Juice meets Fleetwood Mac & My Bloody Valentine meets Gilberto Gil & Os Mutantes meets early Elvis Costello & Prefab Sprout & XTC meets Thomas Dolby meets Steely Dan circa Katy Lied, kind of thing."
Music Review: Sondre Lerche and the Faces Down - Phantom Punch (Blogcriti...
After vociferously consuming Sondre Lerche?s new release Phantom Punch , this reviewer can?t shake those sharp melodies, or the nagging feeling that Lerche would have been just as fashionable in 1977 as he is today. Even a single run through the disc is like setting your own personal wayback machine to the New Wave era ? where the punch of Elvis Costello and the Scot outfit Orange Juice is ...
Keeping us in stitches: Patchwork songs that sound familiar (Baltimore Sun)
The Fratellis took their brothers-in-music identities from The Ramones. They named their debut album "Costello Music" (Cherry Tree/Interscope) after that angry-young-Brit, Elvis Costello. And there's a bit of nearly every Britpop band from the Beatles to the Arctic Monkeys tucked into the band's songs.
Music Review: Ted Leo and the Pharmacists - Living With the Living (Blogcri...
Sound: Melodic punk with do-it-yourself passion, political conviction and a well-read vocabulary. As always, Ted and Company keep the spirit of The Clash, Elvis Costello and the Jam alive, but continue to carve out their own niche behind the strength of Ted?s powerful pipes ? which can slice and jab or sweetly croon ? his ideological poetry and the band?s well-rounded, top-shelf, and ...
Singers bash sponsors, stop traffic in Austin (San Francisco Chronicle)
