Elvis Costello's Sundance Channel show really is a perfectly packaged hour for music nerds. EC is an adept interviewer, and never shy about joining in the jam during his guest's performance segments. As at the wrap party, last night's Spectacle had Costello perform with Jenny Lewis on her Acid Tongue cut "Carpetbaggers." Only this time Zooey Gibbard was there to side-step and to sing and to guarantee that you click to watch the videos below. The whole hour had nice overlapping themes: Elvis started with a spin through "Show Biz Kids," explaining the evening's guests had familial industry roots (Jenny, Zooey, Jakob Dylan), later discussing Matt Ward's Acid Tongue guitar solos during a cute interview with She & Him. They talk favorite records and guitar playing; Matt mentions John Fahey's work as having a revelatory effect on his right-hand technique, and earlier today we mentioned Fahey for having created the new Sonic Youth album cover. (If you're new, I'll save you the Wiki search.) You really should have this show on your DVR, so go set a season pass. And then watch the clips: Continue reading Elvis Costello Fleshes Out His Spectacle With She & Him & Jenny Lewis ...

His line about Elvis Costello — that critics like Costello because most of them look like him — is the kind of thing that haunts people in my profession to this day. At the time, Diamond Dave was Van Halen’s wildman lead s...

Elvis Costello: Watch Elvis Costello & ZZ Top’s Billy Gibbons Play A Benefit Show Together In Nashville
submitted by Nick Mar 13th 2023 03:00 pm (www.stereogum.com)
Elvis Costello and ZZ Top frontman Billy Gibbons are both legendary veteran road-dog types with long resumes and distinctive looks, and both of them did pretty well on MTV in the network’s early years. Still, Costello and Gibbons are not necessarily two people I would necessarily consider to be natural collaborators with one another, s...
