What I have noticed with Costello is that he is not a dynamic performer or songwriter but this is a plus point. What at first seems unoriginal, even banal then turns into something exceptional. It's criminal that he is so overlooked. Especially here in Blighty.

One of the best threads on MB and a shining example of reined in fanboyism
