Elvis Costello fans are generally divided over the quality of his 1983 album Punch the Clock, which he recorded with Clive Langier and Alan Winstanley, producers of many of Madness' greatest moments as well as the '80s pedophilia anthem "Come on Eileen. On this live incarnation of the album's sound, however, it's impossible not to be drawn in by the band's energy and their warm, expanded sound. As you tear through the closing moments of the show - a manic "Pump It Up" with the TKO Horns supplying Steve Nieve's trademark keyboard hook - you'll likely find yourself as breathless as the crowd and performers must have been.

The Costello Album, also The McCartney/MacManus Collaboration, is a Paul McCartney album that includes work from his 1987–88 songwriting collaboration with Elvis Costello. The album includes demo recordings made by Paul and Elvis in the throes of their collaboration, other demos of some songs by Costello and McCartney individually, live performances by Costello, and two duo live performances taken from a 1995 benefit concert at the Royal College of Music.

Elvis Costello and the Attractions, ‘Armed Forces’. Costello‘s third album is all tightly wound paranoia. The concept is personal politics; the original title was Emotional Fascism, and one song is called Two Little Hitlers. The keyboard-driven sound of Accidents Will Happen helped define New Wave. It's one of the weirdest Motown records ever. Gaye's divorce settlement required him to make a new album and pay the royalties to his ex-wife – the sister of Motown boss Berry Gordy.

Elvis Costello and the Attractions - Possession (1980). Signed with love and vicious kisses. Following the critically acclaimed and musically eclectic Imperial Bedroom, Elvis Costello will go back to a more straight ahead pop music sound, working with producers Langer and Winstanley (Madness, Dexys Midnight Runners). The album also features additional backing from the TKO Horns and background vocal duo Afrodiziak (featuring Caron Wheeler and Claudia Fontaine), spinning off three singles including Costello’s first US Top 40 hit, Everyday I Write The Book ( Pop). The album is first remastered and reissued in 1995 on Rykodisc Records, augmenting the thirteen song album with seven.
