Elvis Costello
Le Roi
Well it looks like Elvis must be eating regularly. This record just doesn't have the lean, hungry sounds of previous albums. Not to say it's a bad record because at points it is brilliant, but in his attempt to widen his horizon he has lost the edge he has had before. As my good friend Stretch suggested — if he played the country twanger called "Different Finger" in Nashville they would laugh him out of town. One standout on this one is his slow ballad "Shot With His Own Gun." Even though it's not as strong, it will be a must for Costello fans.
