Momofuku
Pop New Release 1109 Lost Highway
Factory Sealed 2008 Gatefold Vinyl. Includes MP3 Download Of Entire Album. "The Absence Of Much Advance Notice Or Information Might Seem A Little Strange And Perverse But The Record Was Made So Quickly That I Didn't Even Tell Myself About It For A Couple Weeks. So, What Can I Tell You About "Momofuku"? Well, Obviously The Title Is A Tribute To Momofuku Ando, The Inventor Of The Cup Noodle. Like So Many Things In This World Of Wonders, All We Had To Do To Make This Record Was Add Water. Now, I Understand That There Is Also A Fancy Eatery In New York City That Has Made The Same Connection With Ando-San. So, Just In Case Anybody Is Inclined To Mistake Our Record For Something Edible, We've Added A Disclaimer To The Record Jacket. I Like Saying, "Record Jacket" Again. For Those Who Like To Know These Things, We Recorded Exclusively To Tape, Completing And Mixing Each Song Before Moving On To The Next. The Entire Record Took A Week To Record And Mix. The Music Has Been Pressed On Four Sides Of Vinyl For Volume And Clarity Although The Album Was Originally Sequenced With Six Tracks A-Side. Every Record Has Its Own Method. This Was The One For These Songs.” – Elvis Costello... more details |

Blood & Chocolate
Pop New - LP FC 40518 Columbia
Sealed 1986 Original. Crisp Corners, No Cut-Out Holes. 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 Hints Of Country And Folk, But The Majority Of The Album Is Straight-Ahead Rock & Roll. 4 Stars In All Music Guide.... more details |

Get Happy
Pop New - LP 36347 Columbia
Sealed 1980 Original. “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 Wants To Prove His Knowledge. So, He Tries Everything, Starting With Motown And Northern Soul, Then Touching On Smooth Uptown Ballads And Gritty Southern Soul, Even Finding Common Ground Between The Two By Recasting Sam & Dave's "I Can't Stand Up (For Falling Down)" As A Careening Stomper. What's Remarkable Is That This Approach Dovetails With The Pop Carnival Essayed By Armed Forces, Standing As A Full-Fledged Costello Record Instead Of A Genre Exercise. As It Furiously Flits Through 20 Songs, Costello's Cynicisms, Rage, Humor, And Misanthropic Sensibility Gel Remarkably Well. Some Songs May Not Quite Hit Their Targets, But That's Part Of The Album's Charm -- It Moves So Fast That Its Lesser Songs Rush By On The Way To Such Full-Fledged Masterpieces As "New Amsterdam," "High Fidelity," And "Riot Act." Get Happy!! Bursts With Energy And Invention, Standing As A Testament To How Costello, The Pop Encyclopedia, Can Reinvent The Past In His Own Image.” Stephen Thomas Erlewine, AMG.... more details |

Imperial Bedroom
Pop Audiophile - LP HC 48157 CBS Mastersound
Factory Sealed 1982 Half-Speed Master. 5 Stars. “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 Traditional Pop With A Post-Sgt. Pepper Production. Essentially, The Songs On Imperial Bedroom Are An Extension Of Costello's Jazz And Pop Infatuations On Trust. Costello's Music Is Complex And Intricate, Yet It Flows So Smoothly, It's Easy To Miss The Bitter, Brutal Lyrics. The Interweaving Layers Of "Beyond Belief" And The Whirlwind Intro Are The Most Overtly Dark Sounds On The Record, With Most Of The Album Given Over To The Orchestrated, Melancholy Torch Songs And Pop Singles. Never Once Do Costello & The Attractions Deliver A Rock & Roll Song — The Album Is All About Sonic Detail, From The Accordion On "The Long Honeymoon" To The Lilting Strings On "Town Cryer." Of Course, The Detail And The Ornate Arrangements Immediately Peg Imperial Bedroom As Costello's Most Ambitious Album, But That Doesn't Mean It's His Absolute Masterpiece. Imperial Bedroom Remains One Of Costello's Essential Records Because It Is The Culmination Of His Ambitions And Desires — It's Where He Proves That He Can Play With The Big Boys, Both As A Songwriter And A Record-Maker. It May Not Have Been A Commercial Blockbuster, But It Certainly Earned The Respect Of Legions Of Musicians And Critics Who Would Have Previously Disdained Such A Punk Rocker. And, Perhaps, That's Also The Reason That He Abandoned This Immaculately Crafted Style Of Work On His Next Album, Punch The Clock.” Stephen Thomas Erlewine, AMG.... more details |

All This Useless Beauty
Pop Used - LP 46198 Warner
Mint 1996 Vinyl Rarity With Lyric Insert. “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 New Songs. Given Its Origins, It's Surprising That The Record Holds Together As Well As It Does. The Main Strength Of All This Useless Beauty Is The Quality Of The Individual Songs -- Each Song Can Stand On Its Own As An Individual Entity, As The Music Is As Sharp As The Lyrics. Although The Music Is Certainly Eclectic, It's Accessible, Which Wasn't The Case With Mighty Like A Rose. Furthermore, The Production Is More Textured And Punchier Than Mitchell Froom's Botched Job On Brutal Youth. All This Useless Beauty Doesn't Quite Add Up To A Major Statement, But The Simple Pleasures It Offers Makes It One Of The More Rewarding Records Of The Latter Part Of Costello's Career.” Stephen Thomas Erlewine, AMG.... more details |
