      I wasn't aware Elvis Costello wrote this one

      I believe @popvulture is our resident expert on Mr C

        @GraemeE ah yes, love RW’s version! EC’s version on Punch the Clock is also good — he got Chet Baker to play a solo on it, which I think was maybe sort of a feat at the time because Chet was in a pretty sad state.

            @popvulture 80s Chet life is dark

            But it works to capture the vibe
            Just listened to that version for the 1st time

              @GraemeE definitely.

              Fwiw if you haven’t dug deep into Costello, I’d say Punch the Clock is a fairly decent record, but there are others from that era that are really fantastic. Trust and Imperial Bedroom are my personal faves from then. But tbh… can’t really go wrong with any from the first dozen.

                  For some reason I got to thinking about a school trip to Scotland in 2000. Listened to a lot of this on that trip:

                            I know I’ve posted this before, and @goosehd has as well, but it came on my playlist and it is just such a beautiful song:

                                This is their new one and I bought the record as soon as the last song ended. Automatic is another incredible album I bought the record to instantly as well.

                                      @endo I flat out love The MC5,and was fortunate to have seen them live,and I really,really wanted to like that,but I couldn’t get through any of the songs they put out in advance. They had their long overdue induction into the stupid Rock n Roll Hall of Fame last night,and unfortunately none of them are alive. Do you think I should give it another chance?

                                        @Jett129 that's why I'm asking. Thought you'd seen them in their great days, and I acknowledge and love their 60s/early 70s stuff and the impact it had on other bands. But what does it to their legacy to do another record that late? I don't know. Just heard it once, guess I have to listen more often into it. I do like the fact that Tom Morello and Slash are participating. But I'm not convinced.

                                          @endo I thought your post might be directed at me,but when you didn’t tag me I thought you were putting it out there for everyone. When they did the 50th Anniversary tour I didn’t go to that,because I just want to keep my memories of the band intact. I guess Wayne had some material and I’m sure that there was no shortage of musicians wanting to play with him,and he was keeping The MC5 alive,so to speak. Don’t think it would have garnered as much interest/attention if it was just a Wayne Kramer solo album.
