Product Description:
Out of print in the U.S.! Import pressing of this 1997 compilation from the British singer/songwriter. After a decade with his backing band The Attractions, Costello had moved beyond the Punk and New Wave tags that the critics had labeled him as and settled into a more comfortable and highly respected position as a singer/songwriter. This collection highlights tracks from his Warner Brothers Records period in the late '80s through most of the '90s and contains songs from the albums Spike, Mighty Like a Rose, The Juliet Letters, Brutal Youth and All this Useless Beauty. Highlights include his first ever Top 20 U.S. hit, 'Veronica' (with Paul McCartney on bass and as co-producer), 'Tramp the Dirt Down', 'All This Useless Beauty' and many more. 18 tracks in all. Warner.

There are few things in the world as dependable, year after year, as the quality of Elvis Costello's music. He's neither as biting nor as rocking as he once was--and he's not always brilliant--but even in his third decade Costello is consistently good. The Warner Bros. years constitute a series of albums beginning with 1989's Spike through 1996's All This Useless Beauty, and Extreme Honey collects notable tracks from five albums. With the inclusion of a hit ("Veronica"), a rarity ("My Dark Life" with Brian Eno), and a never- before-released track, this doesn't encapsulate Costello's earlier brilliance, but it is a good summation of the best of the rest. --Roni Sarig
