==Burt Bacharach RIP==
[[Burt Bacharach]] died of natural causes on February 8, 2023. His death came less than a month before the planned release of ''[[The Songs Of Bacharach & Costello]]''.  Elvis and Burt first worked together in 1995 on "[[God Give Me Strength]]." Elvis wrote about Burt in the [[Magic Moments (2008) liner notes|liner notes]] for the 1998 release ''Magic Moments - The Definitive Burt Bacharach Collection''. Elvis also talked about his collaboration with Burt in an interview in the [[London Times, February 18, 2023|London Times]] just before and after Burt's death.

==The Songs Of Bacharach & Costello==
''[[The Songs Of Bacharach & Costello]]'', a four-album collection of Elvis' work with [[Burt Bacharach]] was released March 3, 2023. It is available as a "lavish" 4CD and 2 LP Super Deluxe Edition (this option has been put back to March 24 in the UK and EU due to production delays), and (with fewer tracks) as a 2 LP set (with lithograph), a 2 LP set (without lithograph) and as a 2 CD set. The Super Deluxe Edition is available also as a 45 song mp3 album. You can order [https://elviscostello.lnk.to/TSOBACPR here], {{Amazon|asin=B0BQQXL71D}} and {{AmazonUK|asin=B0BQQXL71D}}.

Elvis has [https://www.elviscostello.com/the-songs-of-bacharach-costello/ written] about the album on his website.  He previously revealed a few details In the February 2023 issue of [https://www.uncut.co.uk/publications/magazines/uncut-february-2023-141118/ Uncut]:

:"It's ''[[Painted From Memory]]'' [1998] and ''Taken From Life'', which is a collection of songs that Burt and I wrote over the last 15 years for a proposed ''Painted From Memory'' musical. So you'll hear other people singing a couple of those original songs, but also a bunch of songs that have never been heard before. We've compiled them with a couple of the songs from ''[[Look Now]]'' [2018] and some recordings that were piano/voice explorations of what the songs would sound like if they were sung by other people. We've put them all together to create an impression of what it would have been like to have that score.

:"There's another disc of live performances of ''Painted From Memory'' songs, mostly with [[Steve Nieve]] and myself, a couple of them orchestral. Finally, a whole album of Bacharach/[[Hal David|David]] songs, which I thought would be fun to include. This is a love letter to Burt. We went into the studio last September and recorded two songs with [[Vince Mendoza]] conducting a 30-piece orchestra. So the bookends for this ''Taken From Life'' record are newly recorded. [[The Imposters]] and I recorded a third song, in Capitol Studios with an orchestra. It was a few years since we'd worked together, but it didn't take very long before I'm in the booth and he was on the call-back saying, 'Elvis, you're not singing the right melody.' So I had to be on top of it!".

'''''Unfaithful Music & Disappearing Ink''''' —  memoir by Elvis Costello.

It promises "his unique view of his unlikely and sometimes comical rise to international success, with diversions through the previously undocumented emotional foundations of some of his best known songs and the hits of tomorrow. The book contains many stories and observations about his renowned co-writers and co-conspirators, though Costello also pauses along the way for considerations on the less appealing side of infamy."

[[image:Lost On The River album cover.jpg|right|150px|link=Lost On The River: The New Basement Tapes|border]] 
Elvis Costello is part of a group assembled by producer [[T Bone Burnett]] to create music for unheard 1967 [[Bob Dylan]] lyrics for ''Lost On The River: The New Basement Tapes'', an album released on November 11, 2014.  The deluxe CD is available to order here: <small>{{amazon|asin=B00MRKX9MW}} {{-}} {{amazonUK|asin=B00MRKX9MW}}</small>.

The other members of the group are [[Rhiannon Giddens]], [[Taylor Goldsmith]], [[Jim James]], and [[Marcus Mumford]].  The group - "The New Basement Tapes", made their first live performances via three national television appearances in the USA in November. They performed on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon on [[TV 2014-11-10 Jimmy Fallon|November 10, 2014]], Ellen on [[TV 2014-11-13 Ellen DeGeneres|November 14, 2014]] and Jimmy Kimmel Live on [[TV 2014-11-12 Jimmy Kimmel|November 19, 2014]]. They also played a concert in [[Concert 2014-11-13 Los Angeles|Los Angeles]] at the Montalban Theatre, and recorded a number of interviews and performances for radio broadcast.  

According to the [http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/music/posts/la-et-ms-bob-dylan-lost-lyrics-new-basement-tapes-20140325,0,1813349.story Los Angeles Times], "One intriguing facet of the current project is the collaboration among the participants. Each has come up with his or her own music for many of the lyrics, resulting in multiple versions of the same songs and allowing a perspective on the ways different artists respond to Dylan’s lyrics. Each artist takes the lead on the tracking of his or her song, and all provide suggestions and whatever instrumental and vocal support the others require, with Burnett overseeing final production."

Speaking to the [[London Evening Standard, July 17, 2014|London Evening Standard]] at an event in July to launch the album, Elvis said there had been a number of traps to avoid: "One is to go back in time, the other is to be intimidated and the third is to think that you are Bob and The Band because we're not. We're us, playing today with our own histories and our own preferences."

The making of the album is the subject of the documentary '’[[Lost Songs: The Basement Tapes continued ]]’’.  A trailer for the documentary is available [http://www.sho.com/sho/home here]

Five "lyric videos" have been released: [http://www.vevo.com/watch/the-new-basement-tapes/Nothing-To-It-(Official-Lyric-Video)/USUV71401659 Nothing To It] (sung by Jim James), [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=74cnDr64vNE Married To My Hack] (sung by Elvis), [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BDUDx15KdkI When I Get My Hands On You] (sung by Marcus Mumford), [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZKGqtSisReg Spanish Mary] (sung by Rhiannon Giddens), and [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-lnSzDr83U Liberty Street] (sung by Taylor Goldsmith).

In an interview with [http://www.billboard.com/articles/business/6663875/t-bone-burnett-elton-john-taylor-swift-apple-true-detective-music Billboard Magazine] published in August 2015 T-Bone Burnett commented:
"Well, I’m thrilled with the way the recording sessions came out. That project was one of the most extraordinary events of my life, and I feel like it’s still a work in progress. We got five people that didn’t know each other together for 10 days and wrote and recorded 45 new songs. It was epic, and I don’t think that really came across yet. There’s a film we’re editing now that I think may end up being the definitive version of that whole event, a concert film we shot at the [[Concert 2014-11-13 Los Angeles|Montalban]], where everybody backed each other up with a vengeance. It was a one-time, one-night-only show, and Marcus Heiny, who has done some stuff with us at Capitol before and has done a lot of stuff with Mumford and Sons, came and filmed it. It was guerrilla filmmaking, to be sure. I mean, we decided to do it that morning, practically. That show was really the fruit of the whole experience. By the way, there are another 20-some-odd songs that we haven’t released yet, and we might put out another album of that stuff next year. I look forward to being a steward of all of that material over the next several years."

On his [https://www.elviscostello.com/#!/50songsfor50days website], Elvis wrote an introduction to a selection of 50 of his songs.  He posted one a day, starting on September 15 2020.  He wrote: 

"I have created this installation of “50 Songs For 50 Days”, presenting lyrics written over the last 50 years - most of them my own - and heard on recordings made between 1977 and 2020, including several that will be issued here for the first time. 
These songs were written in response to events over these many years but it strikes me that you may find something useful in them at this present moment; a joke, a motto or even a couple of dance steps to keep the blood pumping and the hot sauce at hand. 
I hope these songs will amuse, console or even infuriate, because passive indifference is hardly the way forward. 
From September 15th, we will bring you a different song every day for the next 50 days via the miracle of your favourite streaming service and the wonder of the internet. Please stay tuned."

"Solo shows are inevitably the most intense because it's you and the audience and nothing else," ... "More than in any other type of concert you might play, the lyrical content is important in a solo performance because when you don't have the distraction of a big arrangement, or the volume of a band, you're making the feeling and the meaning of a song really the key."”.

Elvis, Nov.'13 - '''[http://www.courant.com/entertainment/music/hc-elvis-costello-1121-20131118,0,1357827.story Hartford Courant, CT]'''
