Rare-ish video from the 'Trust' album (1981).

  • Sure Elvis Costello is one exceptionally talented singer/songwriter.....But let's hear it for THE ATTRACTIONS!! What a superb backing band!!

  • This guy's mentality and skill simply blows away anyone listening to his lyrics and music. If you are not a fan, then you have no soul...

  • @brucec43 When I Was Cruel is as good as any of his early albums

  • Most  expressive pairs of eyebrows and separated teeth in the world.

  • @horseluver7926 Yes...very true, but all that soul he acquired came from years of studying the masters, and he even went reggae with Write the Book...very talented man. I'm still trying to figure out how he and Diana Krall got together.

  • Those who understand music in depth know just how ahead of his time Elvis Costello really was. And the Attractions would have outplayed any band back then. The quality of their playing is just outstanding.

  • "Good manners and bad breath will get you nowhere." The man is a genius.

  • Devastating!!!

  • some amazing chord progression in the chorus...have to learn that

  • Zero songs this good since the exit of Bruce Thomas.  Coincidence?

  • this album makes my top five all time no problem

  • Splendid!!
