The Costello Show: Live at Hollywood High

With The Attractions! Elvis Costello was 23 years old when he performed a sold-out concert at the epicenter of the entertainment universe - the auditorium at Hollywood High School. It was June 4, 1978 and he had been introduced to America with a controversial appearance on Saturday Night Live and two albums Rolling Stone would eventually rank among the 200 greatest of all time. Now that historic 20-song concert has been issued for the first time in its entirety, including 11 previously unreleased recordings, on Live at Hollywood High, the second installment in The Costello Show live performance series of complete concerts, follows Live at the El Mocambo. Just three months prior to the Hollywood High concert, This Year's Model had become his second album but first as Elvis Costello and The Attractions, with singer-songwriter-guitarist Costello joined by keyboardist Steve Nieve, bassist Bruce Thomas and drummer Pete Thomas. Producing the concert would be Nick Lowe, who would helm Costello's first five albums.
