A weekend of bliss
Stuart Goldman
A virtual marathon of concert-going last weekend found me wading through the crowds waiting to catch Elvis Costello in his one-night Palomino stand. At 8:00 p.m., Ray Campi and the Rockabilly Rebels kicked off the proceedings with a set of their good-timey music. Ray and his boys are real good. Now if only "Jumpin" Jerry Zacorski and the other guitarist would learn to tune their instruments, they'd be great.
A ten-minute break, and Elvis Costello decked out in a brand new pair of Tony Lama cowboy boots for the occasion took the stage. Costello has been recording in Nashville with George Jones; that fact, coupled with the evening's performance, showed that he's got genuine sensibilities about country music.
