Elvis Costello is an English musician, singer-songwriter, and record producer. He was born on August 25, 1954 in London, England. In the early years of his career, he gained recognition as part of the group Elvis Costello & The Attractions. However, in 1996, the band recorded their last album and underwent some lineup changes. They reformed in 2002 with a new bassist and adopted a new name: The Imposters.
Throughout his career, Elvis Costello has been known for his diverse musical style and thought-provoking lyrics. His talent has earned him critical acclaim and a dedicated fan base. In addition to his music career, he is also recognized for his marriage to Diana Krall since 2003.

When 'My Aim Was True' was released in 1977, no one knew that the character on the cover, with coke-bottle glasses, ill-fitting clothes, and Jerry Lewis posture would become a pop-culture icon. Elvis Costello arrived as the uber-geek, hell-bent on blowing away years of macho rock posturing with his revenge-of-the-nerds image and sharp, snappy sound, instantly defining New Wave. In retrospect, the songs—with echoes of everything from the Band ('Blame It on Cain') to the Byrds ('[The Angels Wanna Wear My] Red Shoes') - owed more to rootsy pub-rock than it did to punk, but it was still miles beyond the hairy-chested blues-rock theatrics bogging down the airwaves in the mid-'70s.LP - 180 Gram Vinyl with Download.
