Literate punk Costello's country makeover, ''Almost Blue'', sat awkwardly with new wave fans in '81, but it's proven durable, with "Sweet Dreams," "Good Year For The Roses" and "I'm Your Toy" (aka "Hot Burrito #2") sounding as warm and nasty as ever. No less than 27 tracks grace the bonus disc, including a previously unreleased duet with Johnny Cash ("We Oughtta Be Ashamed") recorded at Nick Lowe's house, and four live cuts. ''Goodbye Cruel World'' is of-its-time (1984) Langer/Winstanley pop ("The Only Flame In Town", "I Wanna Be Loved"), with 26 bonus tracks: lives, demos, a Specials cover, a "Baby It's You" duet with Lowe. ''Kojak Variety'' from '95 was a covers frenzy (Motown, Dylan, Kinks), and the 20 new extras include Springsteen's "Brilliant Disguise" and Cilla's "Step Inside Love."
