Free Music Notes for The Very Best of Elvis Costello
Free Music Review: Already been said but a great great cd showcase of EC work
Hit: 5 Stars
42 tracks includes most of EC's greatest songs. If you do not own any EC cds start with this one. The old stuff is better but someone this prolific may still produce some gems, this double cd gives you a standard with which to measure the new stuff. Mr Costello has a very tough act to follow.
The Very Best of Elvis Costello Poster
The debate over whether he is punk or new wave is long over; today Elvis Costello is less likely to be found on a list with Strummer and Scabies than he is with Bacharach and David and Jimmy Webb. Lauded initially for his energetic and literate attacks on the social ills of Thatcher's England, he has become a peerless master of the popular song. The evolution of Costello's craft as a songwriter and performer, from the early high-octane polemics, through his stylistic experiments with country and soul, and on to standards written for others, is splendidly documented on this elegant two-disc set. Chronology is ignored in favor of a thoughtful program that catalogs the jewels from his prolific output and a sprinkling of covers that demonstrate the maturing of his singing voice. The 42 tracks here lean generously to the first 10 years with the Attractions, but also collects the best of his subsequent collaborations with the cream of America's session musicians and on through to "She," his contribution to the soundtrack of 1999's Notting Hill. --Rob StewartAlternative Rock Music CDs
