       The original Telstar issues were titled _The Best Of Elvis Costello -
       The Man_. The cover was an ugly painting of EC, and was replaced with
       the 'phone box' picture from _Taking Liberties_ by Demon on later
       releases.
       Some covers of the Demon CD have "(p) 1965" instead of "(p) 1985".
