Album: Girls Girls Girls (1989) Permissions: Universal Music Group (Please pardon the typos) Girls Girls Girls is a collection of songs by British singer/songwriter Elvis Costello from the period 1977-1986. Costello chose and ordered the tracks on the album himself, & accompanied them with extensive liner notes. “Riot Act”: From the wiped-out sound of this track you’d never guess that these dark thoughts were written on a beautiful beach at dawn. Produced by Nick Lowe. ————————- A bit of the liner notes on the making of the album “GET HAPPY” (www.elviscostello.com) This would all come to an end in April of 1979 at Columbus, Ohio, where a ridiculous drunken argument would culminate in me speaking the exact opposite of my true beliefs in an attempt to provoke a fight that inevitably arrived.

On the 25th Anniversary of SNL, Costello “sabotaged” Beastie Boys’ ‘Sabotage’ and played ‘Radio, Radio’ with them. I have the ’77 episode of SNL with Elvis Costello and the Attractions, but cannot post it :)
