Elvis Costello: Key of Life Interview with Mary Anne
A fascinating insight into Elvis Costello's early days, career and 2018 record 'Look Now'.
Elvis looks back on his childhood growing up with his father, Birkenhead's first bebop player, and his mother who worked in Liverpool record shops.
He recalls the first time he ever performed on-stage, how he feels his voice has evolved over the years, and why he loves the "surprise of playing wrong notes".
He also explains how a song he co-wrote with Carole King in 1996 finished up on his latest LP, 'Look Now', and talks us through the story that inspired the track 'Stripping Paper'.
