Wealthiest 100 (British) Rock Stars:

     #68 Elvis Costello 8m

     "With a great catalogue, a new deal with Phonogram (sic) records and
     his Burt Bacharac collaboration coming up, plus his 30 per cent cut of
     Demon Records' recent 2m sale, Costello could be forgiven for larging
     it around Dublin where he's lived for some years.  Not that he does.
     His only addiction is to rare record shops - though Attractions
     keyboardist Steve Nieve relates that he and Costello recently gigged
     round Italy low-key to catch every concert on a tour by their fave
     opera diva Celia Bartoli.  And back in the '80s he did buy an American
     tour bus and ship it back to England"



Also good review of bespoke songs, and a mention in a Transvision Vamp/Wendy James review ( describes his
album of songs for her as 'not bad but sold like dead men's feet in summer.)

One further mention Kevin didn't point out was in passing in a review
of the Mitchell Froom album.
