Elvis Costello Fan Forum

Although a cover of the Animals' "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" received the lion's share of rock radio's attention at the time, several songs on the album are top favorites among fans, including "Brilliant Mistake," "Indoor Fireworks," "The Big Light" and &...

Nights of the Golden Underground - GBV

I reall can't rank it since the only song I can stand is The Only Flame In Town. However, the bonus disc has some great stuff, especially She Loves The jerk. That was a revelation, and Get Yourself Another Fool made it worth owning.

Wow, I thought there'd be more Houston reviews. Would've written down the setlist if I'd known there were so few of us...

Another Saturday Night - Sam Cooke

Seen em twice, the ZooTV show ranks as the single best concert I've ever seen. But those ticket prices are ridiculous, so I think I'm gonna pass.

Set looks about right from my memory. Here's my thoughts. I've been a fan of Elvis since in middle school I saw him do Veronica on SNL. And as a lifelong music fan, this concert was my 100th concert to go to (of any band, not 100 elvis concerts!). And it's my birthday this week (a spring chicken of,...

Goner w/ Souveneir - Richard Buckner

I used to like them, still have 2 warped cassettes, but for $99?! After buying box sets that were $60 for 4 discs? I can't beleive I'm considering this!

sweet, a little Pavement action!

That's Right (You're Not From Texas) - Lyle Lovett


gig em!

Nice to see some John Wesley Harding mentions here!

Blue Moon Fruit - Guided By Voices

Thanks! I'll look for some old threads first. Reason it popped into my head was 2 fold. I was breezing through a song interpretation site that took Alison too literally, the whole "I only know it isn't mine" they took to mean a baby. But I'd read recently someone else talking about it stti...

Is it uncool to ask and discuss what people take some of Elvis's lyrics might mean? I've been here over a month and don't see anyone discussing his lyrics and possible interpretations, and since his lyrics are so strong but sometimes just ambiguous enough, well, I just wanted to see if discussing th...

soft silly music is meaningful, magical

I've done some searching on the net, looked in the Pet Sounds sessions box and can't figure it out, but I figured someone here would know. What the heck is that on the intro to Wouldn't It Be Nice? My buddy thought it was harps, but no harps are listed in the sessionography (though other songs had s...

Or at least are completist about? Obviously for me, Guided By Voices & Elvis Costello. Beatles seems obvious for probably most people here too. I'm also a huge fan of The Decemberists, Neutral Milk Hotel, Pearl Jam, PJ Harvey, Smiths, the other Elvis (through the 60s at least) and Buddy Holly (m...

Love Is Stronger Than Witchcraft - GBV

"So Like Candy" - Guided By Voices

HA! I'm starting to feel at home.

I just got my Houston tickets from the presale - FRONT ROW CENTER! I still can't believe it, best seats I've ever had for a non-standing room only show. I had 3d row last time around, which was cool because halfway through people abandoned seats and I got pretty close, but dang, I can NOT wait!

the fink swan swims away - GBV!
