Latest revision as of 15:30, 20 April 2023
The purpose of this page is to answer the following question:
- "If I own the standard versions of all Elvis Costello albums, including the bonus discs from the Rhino and Hip-O reissue series, what other tracks do I need to own to have an absolutely complete collection of officially released songs, including different versions of the same song?"
The list excludes songs available only on video or DVD. The first three categories exclude: minor remixes, edit versions, and tracks on which EC only appears as a guest instrumentalist or backing vocalist. These are shown in separate lists at the end.
OS = original source; CS = current source (if there is a more convenient recently released source)

- 1981 There Won't Be Anymore (live with The Attractions and John McFee, OS:Almost Blue Ryko reissue (1994), slightly different mix to Rhino bonus disk - most noticably, the spoken introduction and the rather shambolic start to the song are omitted)

- 1981 Honey Hush (live with The Attractions and John McFee, OS:Almost Blue Ryko reissue (1994), slightly different mix to Rhino bonus disk)

- 1989 ...This Town... (Bastard mix, OS:The Elvis Costello Hour promo double LP, same as Spike album version but with "bastard" crudely covered by "sweetheart" for US radio)
- 1997 My Mood Swings (promo mix, OS:1998 Mercury February Sales Sampler US promo, no declining bass run in introduction, electric guitar louder and further left in the mix, drums play through the "marshmallow" stop/start)
- 2005 Who Are These People? (explicit version, with Burt Bacharach, OS:iTunes download by Burt Bacharach)
- 2007 Bedlam (OS:iTunes download as "Frankincense/Nashville Mix", CS:iTunes Originals as "Nashville Alternate Version", various subtle differences from version on The Delivery Man, most noticeably Steve Nieve's theremin is relatively quiet)
