Springtime for Elvis
I must say that this is perhaps the most beautiful spring that I remember ever in life. Most minor personal problems melt away when it is 70 degrees and their are fresh flowers blooming. Indeed about now would be a good time to hunt down a copy of Grandpa Jones classic recording of "The Air, the Sunshine and the Rain" for a little non-denominational giving of thanks.
Springtime has apparently been good to Elvis Costello as well. From Rolling Stone:
Elvis Costello will release his twenty-fourth album in September. Recorded in three weeks in New York, with Kevin Killen co-producing, the album will be more lavishly arranged than 2002's rock & roll-minded When I Was Cruel.
Costello wrote most of the songs after last year's Cruel concerts -- still in his sweaty stage clothes, he would play piano for two hours in a white heat of composition.
It appears that getting rid of the dour ex-wife and getting engaged to a hot young jazz singer has stoked his creative fires. This sounds like some inspired record making, always a good thing. It's pretty cool to think that right after the show in Indianapolis last October, and greeting us eager fans at the back door he may likely have been going straight back to the hotel to write a hot new song.
Ah, springtime, what beauty- warm showers, fresh flowers and the promise of an early harvest of a new Elvis album. Life is good.
