Is Elvis Costello taking liberties with us or from us? It would seem neither for this recently released 20 song collection of cathartic vinyl reflects a newfound giving nature in the "King" of the New Wave. ''Taking Liberties'' can be seen as an open musical apology to the masses he has alienated with his recent behavior. He didn't mean to call Ray Charles that nasty name. He's very sorry he only played for 45 minutes on his last American tour. He realized that he was a bad boy to leave his wife and kids for a groupie (and now he's back). While Elvis used to be disgusted, now he's trying to amuse. He wants to get happy, but he won't get happy till he makes us get happy too. With this new disc, he does just that. | Is Elvis Costello taking liberties with us or from us?
