Almost Blue Full Description
Elvis Costello's 1981 tribute to country music, Produced by Nashville's Billy Sherrill, Almost Blue features 12 covers penned by the likes of Merle Haggard, Hank Williams, and Gram Parsons. Bonus tracks include Girls Talk, recorded live at North Hollywood's Palomino club in 1979, and Stranger In The House, a duet with George Jones. Almost Blue is part of a very special series of reissues. The folks at Rhino have long been fans of Elvis Costello and are pleased to present -- in cooperation with the artist himself -- each classic album in a beautiful new package that includes: An entire bonus disc featuring an assortment of outtakes, demos, live performances, and previously unreleased material. Remastered sound. New liner notes written by Elvis Costello himself. Complete lyrics. Archival photos and reproductions of memorabilia. If the punk revolution is remembered for one great singer-songwriter, it would have to be Elvis Costello. Linked with the punks by way of his sharp tongue and relentless energy, Costello forged a truly eclectic career through a series of astonishing creative leaps. Whether rocking or crooning, he left no doubt that the magic lay in the power of his pen. Born in London in 1954 as Declan MacManus, Elvis Costello would work as a computer programmer and folk-club performer before signing to independent label Stiff and releasing his first single, Less Than Zero. Costello's debut album, My Aim Is True, was released in 1977 as his final Stiff single, Watching The Detectives, took hold on the charts. His long-standing band The Attractions was formed for the next album, This Year's Model, which furthered Costello's success and cemented his critical reputation. Over the course of more than two decades, Elvis Costello put an indelible stamp on pop music, bringing a profound lyrical weight to every stylistic excursion. From the country covers of 1981's Almost Blue, to the sprawling adventures of 1989's Spike, to the end-of-the-century collaborations with Burt Bacharach, a picture emerges of an artist who simply refuses to repeat himself.
