Short intro

Ten Bloody Marys & Ten How's Your Fathers is an Elvis Costello and the Attractions album comprising tracks not previously released on albums. It is largely made up of B-sides, but features three previously unreleased recordings. It was released only in the UK, initially only on cassette, though later in other formats. Its track listing is very similar to that of the North America-released album Taking Liberties the differences are that on the latter, the tracks Watching The Detectives, Radio. Given Elvis Costello's stunningly great songwriting talents, this rarities platter is better than the primary album releases by most bands. This is an excellent record, highly recommended if Taking Liberties is not available. Other review sources state that this album's arrangements are different from those of Taking Liberties, but this reviewer hears no difference here.

The slogans used to promote the show were variously the Punk Woodstock, the New Wave Woodstock, or The 1980s Big Beat Rock and Roll Party. The Attractions Elvis Costello Format: Audio CD. This is a collection of b-sides and album cuts that were left off Elvis' UK albums the American Version is slightly different and bears the title Taking Liberties. It was like the early Beatles' records, in that so much material was being written and recorded, that the albums just couldn't contain them all. It is mostly made up of B-sides, but it does feature two previously unreleased recordings. It was released in the UK only, initially only on cassette, though it was later issued in other formats. Its track listing is almost identical to that of the American release Taking Liberties. All songs written by Elvis Costello except as indicated. UK: Went silver 60,000 copies date unkown. Initially a UK cassette only release, released in the US as Taking Liberties. Original cassette copies were made of gold plastic and came in a gold case. This version of Radio Sweetheart is a slightly different mix to the original version B-side of Less Than Zero 7. It does not have the backing vocals singing Oooooh at the start of the line Hope in the eyes. near the start. Ghost Train Lyrics. About Ten Bloody Marys & Ten Hows Your Fathers. Four albums in might seem like a weird time to release and odds-and-sods collection, Elvis Costello already had a decent back log of singles and B-sides that hadnt seen release on LP, including signature songs like Watching the Detectives and Whats So Funny Bout Peace Love and Understanding. Yet other songs Girls Talk had been hits for other artists. But mixed with all that is a clearinghouse of unreleased material, including early or different versions of tracks that had appeared a few months earlier. Side one.
