The album peaked at No. 28 on the UK album chart, and at No. 53 on the Billboard 200. It is his final album with his longstanding backing band The Attractions.In its original conception, the album was to be a set of songs written for other artists, entitled A Case For Song, with backing by a diverse array of musicians. Instead, Costello chose to record the songs himself with The Attractions. For instance, ‘Complicated Shadows’ had been intended for Johnny Cash, and ‘Why Can’t A Man Stand Alone’ for Sam Moore, and the Bside opens with his collaboration with Paul McCartney, ‘Shallow Grave’.Four songs previously released by others also made it to the final track listing ‘The Other End Of The Telescope’ was cowritten with Aimee Mann ‘You Bowed Down’ was recorded by Roger McGuinn ‘All This Useless Beauty’ and ‘I Want To Vanish’ was recorded by June Tabor.
Heavyweight vinyl is pressed on thicker, denser material—typically weighing 180 grams or more. This added weight offers improved durability, reduced warping, and is often believed to provide better sound quality due to more stable playback. Many audiophile releases, reissues, and deluxe editions are pressed on heavyweight vinyl, making it a popular choice among collectors and music enthusiasts who value both performance and longevity. While it doesn’t automatically guarantee superior audio, its solid, premium feel and association with high-quality production standards have made it a trusted format for serious vinyl fans.
Vinyl records are a timeless format that continues to captivate music lovers with their warm, analogue sound. Unlike digital formats, vinyl offers a rich, textured listening experience that many argue feels more authentic and immersive. With their larger artwork and tangible presence, records bring a sense of nostalgia and artistry to any music collection.
Whether you’re a seasoned collector or new to the world of vinyl, records have a unique ability to connect listeners to music on a deeper level. Their physical grooves and the ritual of placing a needle on a spinning disc create a tactile and engaging experience. From classic albums to modern releases, vinyl remains a cherished way to enjoy music.
