Now, who'dathunk this pairing would've worked out so well?
Elvis Costello was one of the "Angry Young Men" who came out of England in the late 70's & early 80's (along with Graham Parker & Joe Jackson) during the dawn of the New Wave movement. However, by 1984, that anger had given way to the temptations of pop stardom, as demonstrated in a duet with Daryl Hall, who was making his first record without regular partner John Oates, and would record a solo record for Costello's label, Epic, not long after the release of "The Only Flame in Town".
These days, the ideal duet partner for Elvis would be his wife, singer-songwriter Diana Krall, who's definitely Elvis' "only flame"......!
