Natural Acoustic - various artists
 Alison - EC
[2003-09-15; CD; Music Club MCCD 526 (UK)]
Sleeve note inside the CD by Joey Webb - "Alison was arguably the first classic to be composed by Elvis Costello, from his superb 1977 debut album My Aim Is True. Indeed, it is this very song from which the album title is derived, a sweet and soulful ballad penned by a true Pop Craftsman at an early career peak. The production values by Nick Lowe add the properly lean sound that the song needs to soar over - Alison a jewel from one of the UK's most enduring compositional talents."
