Show Notes
Music journalist and author Ian Winwood is an Elvis Costello obsessive.
We chat about how his love of EC’s music began, the many and varied gigs he’s been to and why a Costello song was the soundtrack to his wedding day.
Ian also picks out five of his favourite Elvis songs to add to my Ashtrays of Emotion playlist.
We also talk about Ian’s terrific new book, Bodies: Life and Death in Music, in which he explores the impact of working in the music industry.
