Some of the photos are from the Punch The Clock back-of-cover session, so they were taken here in Dublin. The excitement of it!

Was not too fond of the TKO Horns and Afrodiziak. I like my EC straight up. Of course, I like my coffee black and I don't even like ice in my whiskey. So that may explain things.Christopher Sjoholm wrote:Yes, BA, that could well be my favorite tour over the years- it was just plain fun!
True. I have seen the Rockpalast video numerous times though, and for the longest time, that was the only Costello video that I had. I think one of the things that also got to me about the show was the PTC material. I just don't like any of those songs (I like EDIWTB, but I don't like the arrangement that he used on that tour). However, I must admit that I that era's Beyond Belief and Get Happy performances, but I like those performances in any era.bronxapostle wrote:sounds to me like SOUL did NOT see the tour!!!! it was terrific!
Obviously not all at once - my trading with Dave and Tony started around the early eighties and back then there were plenty of UK and European shows to trade for the (always slightly better quality) US shows. At one stage,early on, I was only going to collect UK shows but as trading became more extensive with more contacts, I just kept going ! I never saw the TKO Horns, I'd started work in the far west of Cornwall and the nearest EC came to us was at Bristol about 160 miles away - one of my big regrets regarding watching EC. He'd played the mighty Cornwall Coliseum in 1981 and 1982 and I'd caught him for my second time at Exeter University in 1981. You should hear my incomplete recording of the Exeter show, BA just to cast doubts on the quality of analogue, recorded with a cassette recorder the size of a small South American republic, and with the volume turned up (by mistake) to give maximum rumble and distortion !and what??? did they AIR MAIL you like 1300 cassettes at one time??? no wonder your great affinity for ANALOG!
