Dangerous Amusements: The Elvis Costello Playlist - 6 January 2024: *Something a bit different to kick off 2024. / This is a mini episode reflecting on how a stunning duet by Elvis Costello and Elton John introduced me to the wonderful music of David Ackles. / They performed a beautiful version of Ackles' Down River on Spectacle, backed by James Burton, Allen Toussaint, Pete Thomas and Davey Faragher. / In this episode, I look back at that performance and the career of David Ackles, who released four fine albums between 1968 and 1973. [that was an interesting change to the usual, with Stu doing a deep dive about someone who inspired both Elvis Costello and Elton John. Any chance of more like that?]
