Little seen Costello photos from 1983 book

Post by johnfoyle »

Today I got a copy of the book EVERYDAY I WRITE THE SONG, a 1983 collection of Costello words, music and guitar chords from TRUST, IMPERIAL BEDROOM and PUNCH THE CLOCK. Featured also are some , to me, little seen photos , like these -

Looking again at the vid. , this 'big hat' moment doesn't feature. Or was it from elsewhere?

Another bizarre image from this book ; it's a Plangent Visions book so this all must have been passed by Elvis .

I had both this and the Singing Dictionary, but, alas, lost them in Katrina. I had no idea they were out of print until fairly recently.
