(The Angels Wanna Wear My) Red Shoes / Mystery Dance (UK Stiff BUY 15): (+ Clover). A single coupling two tracks from ''My Aim Is True'' . The 45 was later issued in Stiff singles 11 through 20 box set and in the Costello UK Stiff 45 set. Rumors are rampant regarding a special sleeve depicting a negative telephone directory print-out. No one on the ''Aware'' staff has determined whether or not this actually exists. 8/77. | (The Angels Wanna Wear My) Red Shoes / Mystery Dance (UK Stiff BUY 15): (+ Clover).

Another UK only various artists LP with one Elvis cut, this time "Radio Sweetheart". Elvis was the first successful Stiff artist so the company hooked record collectors into sampling their other artists while keeping the Costello collection complete. This LP came in handy for those who missed out on the initial Elvis 45 release. 9/77. | ||
Alison (#2)/Miracle Man (live #1) (US Columbia 3-10641): (A: + Clover with additional accompaniment; B: +A). This is a very important release. The version of "Alison" featured is remixed with added strings and back-up vocals. This version appears only here and on the re-release issued 4 months afterward. It seems to be now permanently available on Columbia's Hall of Fame series. The live version of "Miracle Man" featured here is available only on this 45. Do not confuse it with the live version that later appeared on ''LIVE STIFFS LIVE''. 10/77. | |||
Watching The Detectives (#2) / Watching The Detectives (#1) (UK Stiff BUY 20 DJ: (+ The Rumour). Special UK promo 45 with an edited version of this song on the A-side, presumably for radio airplay. While it frequently happens in the States, the release of a short/long promo in England is an oddity. 10/77. | |||
Watching The Detectives (#1) / Blame It On Cain (live): Mystery Dance (live #1) (UK Stiff BUY 20/US Columbia 3-10696); (A: +The Rumour: B: +A). The A-side soon appeared on the US ''MY AIM IS TRUE'' LP but is still a non-LP track in the UK. The two tracks on the flip were recorded live and are not available on any album. The 45 was later issued in the Stiff singles 11 through 20 box set and in the Elvis US Stiff 4-pack 45 set. 10/77, issued with a picture sleeve in the UK. | |||
Alison (#2) /Watching The Detectives (#1) (US Columbia 3-10705): (A: + Clover with additional accompaniment: B: +The Rumour). Columbia re-releases the A-sides of their 2 Costello singles back-to-back. All Columbia issuings of "Alison" say that it is taken from the LP "''MY AIM IS TRUE''". This is false since this version is non-LP. "Watching The Detectives", however, is, in fact, from the US ''MY AIM IS TRUE''. 2/78. | |||

''LIVE STIFFS LIVE'' (UK Stiff GET1/US Stiff 0001: reissued in the UK as Music For Pleasure MFP 50445): I Just Don't Know What To Do With Myself (live): Miracle Man (live #2); Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll & Chaos (live); plus tracks by other artists: (1&2: +A; 3: +A with assorted tour members). Another various artists Stiff LP, recorded live on the first of several special Stiff package tours in the UK. It contains two live Costello tracks. Elvis joins in on the chorus of Ian Dury's "Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll & Chaos", which was the encore of these shows and had all the musicians and some other tour members singing together. This track is credited to All. These cuts are unavailable on any other release. 3/78. | |||
(I Don't Want To Go To) Chelsea/You Belong To Me (UK Radar ADA 3): +A. Two tracks off ''THIS YEAR'S MODEL'', released around the same time as the LP. 3/78, issued with a picture sleeve. | |||
