didn't mind this, but I am not a fan of Costello's voice - or tone. All feels a bit sneery to me. The band seem quite competent, but nothing here jumped out at me. I was doing other things while this played, but it all just sounded like an Elvis Costello album to me. Which is good if you like that sort of thing, I guess.

There's a high bar set with the singles. The rest of the album fails to catch up. Nick Lowe's production is superb and holds it all together. I wasn't expecting Peace, Love and Understanding at the end - a highlight.
