Elvis Costello arrived on the scene in 1977, just as the new wave of music was breaking. He had punk attitude, Buddy Holly glasses, and the audacity to appropriate the first name of the King. Although his songwriting prowess was recognized from the very start, the depth and breadth of Elvis Costello's skill came to be revealed as he went on to explore many diverse musical genres. The man even wrote songs with Burt Bacharach. Bacharach is back for three co-writes on Look Now, the first Elvis Costello studio album in five years. And old friends The Imposters are back to play with Elvis on this sophisticated pop record.
