i grew up loving it as much as the first but always felt the first was the better and i seemed to be in a minority, second is more polished and as as killer tracks but i like the rawness of the first

costello kinda similar career as neil with his side bands: crazy horse / attractions, etc

costello def deserves more share on ktt, ill work on it whenever rock is brought up - he has amazing catalogue all over the place, love this song from his last (? to date) album with the attractions, 1994:

The band that played on his first album was American cheeseball Huey Lewis' and they recorded a bunch of the corniest s*** imaginable in the 80s. He formed the Attractions for his 2nd album and they were dramatically better.

imperial bedroom is more baroque jazzy - not produced by nick lowe so it’s different, not the power pop bite, but songwritting and performance beautiful, id have to dive back in deep but it was one of my fav

the picasso type beat artwork too >>>>
