Review title: By far and away the worst cd I've bought in 2005
Product review: Like a fool, I bought into the promotional campaign for this one. You saw it, the cd is pitched as Elvis' heartfelt response to spending time in the rural south and telling us all how it really is. What a sucker I feel like for allowing myself to believe the hype!The ad campaign and the cd are a load of crap. Costello completely fails to demonstrate any true affinity for the soul of this "music" (about as polite a term for this garbage as I can come up with). Evidently Lucinda Williams and Emmylou Harris fell for the same story...oh well, we'll all live and learn.Refresh my memory...do the names Stephen Stills and Ray Charles ring any bells? If Costello wants to write songs about down and out losers in the US, maybe he should write songs about the night he had a conversation with Stills about Ray and how that turned out? There's one loser in that story that Costello can personally identify with quite well!
