ELVIS COSTELLO – THE DELIVERY MAN
Biography With The Delivery Man -- Elvis Costello and the Imposters' first release for Lost Highway -- one of modern music's most admired and prolific talents has delivered a remarkable album that draws on deep American musical roots more than any of his releases since “King of America” in 1986. It is a collection that ranges from the ferocious, bass-driven opening track, “Button my lip”, which speaks in the voice of a desperate man on the verge of committing a terrible crime, to a tender and timely closing rendition of, “The Scarlet Tide”, referred to by Costello’s co-composer and fellow Oscar Nominee, T Bone Burnett as an “anti-fear song”. |
