Re: Elvis & The Imposters with Nick Lowe & Los Straitjackets, Hartford HealthCare Amphitheater, Bridgeport, CT, July 5,
I didn't take notes either, but I'm pretty sure Possession was the second song. If you go to this venue, sit as close to the center as possible. The sound is absolutely atrocious on the sides. Also, I counted exactly two times Charlie got to solo, while Elvis soloed constantly. What's the point of h...

EC needs a proofreader. I've offered, to no response.

Re: The Songs of Bacharach & Costello: 4 album set based on Painted From Memory, March 3, 2023
The 4 CDs alone could easily be priced and sold for under $80. Vinyl is expensive to produce these days, so they created the problem just to justify a high price. I still don't get the logic behind having both CD and vinyl of identical content in the same package. Shades of the Return of the Spectac...

Re: "The Resurrection of Rust" - 2022 album by Rusty (EC & Allan Mayes)
Has the CD actually been released yet in the US? Amazon says it has been rescheduled to July 22. I preordered mine from Amazon as soon as it came available at the non-import price, and they're telling me July 22.
