You'd better be good if you're a rock 'n' roller who decides to use the first name Elvis. Costello (aka Declan Patrick McManus) is. There are some moments in the British singer-songwriter's first 12 that are as ragged as his L.A. club [[Concert 1977-11-18 Los Angeles|debut]] last November. But the lyrics are among the most well-crafted and provocative of any new arrival in years. Costello looks a bit like Buddy Holly, sounds something like Graham Parker and shares Dylan's sarcastic, angry outlook. He should be back with another album and tour by the spring. Catch him. | |||
