The strangest LP of the year? 'Father's Lying Dead On The Ironing Board' by Agnes Bernelle brings a lost generation of Berlin cabaret artists back to life for our wears today. Producer Philip Chevron says so. So does IMP records boss Elvis Costello.
"Hello. Mat? It's Albert."
Albert who?
"No, no. Not Albert, Elvis..."
Whoops. My first conversation with the bespectacled boss of IMP records had not got off to a flying start.
My second conversation with the colourful vinyl supremo found him tired and tetchy, squeezing in an hour's lunchtime interview in Soho's busiest cafe before rushing off with Pogues bassist Cott O'Riordan to the studio where the boys (and girl) from County Hell are recording their second album, with Elvis at the controls.
