Обложка альбома «The Delivery Man (Deluxe Edition)» — Elvis Costello & The Imposters

Elvis Costello may never recapture the purebred firepower of his initial creative outburst (1977-1980), but that doesn't mean it isn't satisfying to hear him try. For <i>The Delivery Man</i>, he teamed up with former Attractions Steve Nieve on keyboards and Pete Thomas on drums, plus Davey Farragher on bass, then settled into a room in Oxford, Mississippi to cut as many live tracks as possible. Costello gets a tense band sound that helps him achieve that paranoid edge. "Monkey to Man" charts with an R&B groove, "Button My Lip" stews with political futility, and the duets with Emmylou Harris ("Nothing Clings Like Ivy," "Heart Shaped Bruise") and Lucinda Williams ("There's A Story in Your Voice") represent the best material Costello's worked with in years. Costello initially claimed this was a "concept" album about a deliveryman in the American South who has a series of relationships. However, Costello's subsequent admission that he switched the song order and deleted a few key tracks means few will be able to actually follow any concept beyond the fact that these songs all <i>sound</i> as if they belong hanging together side by side.
