Notch up another first for wily | Notch up another first for wily Jake Riviera and his squinting protegee Elvis Costello ... ''Thrills'' presents the proof that when it comes to publicity stunts, these boys can lick the lot. | ||
Our pix show what went on last November when Elvis went shopping for trinkets down Tokyo's main drag, Ginza Street. Rather than merely picking up souvenirs like any normal western rock star, Costello decided to do something for the Japs in return — so he and his Attractions turned up on a lorry, tuned up and ready to go, and hammered out a free and furious set of venomous rock 'n' roll. Featured classics naturally included Costello's best known songs, such as "Ripstick Vogue" and "Ladio Ladio." | Our pix show what went on last November when Elvis went shopping for trinkets down Tokyo's main drag, Ginza Street.
