'Reasonable' year for music in 1981


Jim Musser

Extract:

Yet even with these disclaimers, no-shows and disappointments, 1981 has been a reasonably good year for pop music. The following represents this reviewer's picks for the best pop, soul and rock 'n' roll LPs released this calendar year up to the present.


1. Elvis Costello, Trust (Columbia) — Arguably Costello's most consistent, varied and intelligent effort yet in an enviable string of consistent, varied and intelligent records (not necessarily including the Taking Liberties collection or his C&W tribute Almost Blue). He continues to extend his ability to marry credible lyrics to well-crafted pop and rock tunes. The scattershot bitterness that he is known for has yielded somewhat to a welcome tempering of humanism. A great record in any year.
