Albums Out Today:
Elvis Costello & The Imposters, The Boy Named If
Konstantinos Pappis
|
Elvis Costello has issued a new album with his band the Imposters. The Boy Named If, out today via EMI/Capitol, includes the advance tracks ‘Farewell, OK’, ‘Paint the Red Rose Blue’, and ‘Magnificent Hurt’. ”The full title of this record is ‘The Boy Named If (And Other Children’s Stories)’,” Costello said in press materials. “‘IF,’ is a nickname for your imaginary friend; your secret self, the one who knows everything you deny, the one you blame for the shattered crockery and the hearts you break, even your own.” Co-produced with Sebastian Krys, the album is a collection of songs that “take us from the last days of a bewildered boyhood to that mortifying moment when you are told to stop acting like a child – which for most men (and perhaps a few gals too) can be any time in the next fifty years,” Costello added.
