I'm moving into a new place tomorrow so I don't have much to time to write tonight. But I do hope you enjoy my collection of Elvis Costello obscurities - I tried to make it a cross-section of stuff from various points in his career. There's also a lot of good stuff I didn't include, so I may have to make another 1-2 of these at some point.

Thanks for that.Fantastic
this looks like another outstanding mix from your outstanding blog! thank you for this excellent EC collection and for continuing to offer these entertaining listening experiences!
@anonymous and ms. extro,
Glad to oblige. And even though some of Elvis' non-album output is kinda, well, drossy, there's also a lot of gold to be gleaned.
I finally got around to listening to this. What a great set of collectables! nearly all were new to my ears, save 'Head To Toe' and 'Blame It On Cain (Honky Tonk Demo)'.
Thanks for taking the time to assemble these. A daunting task no doubt given EC's prolificness. Keep mining the gold, my friend.
@Miles,
Mining Elvis's catalog is (mostly) a labor of enjoyment. Actually even the dross is kinda interesting to listen to once.
I did one of these a long while back (on cassette!) with various tribute album appearances, vinyl B-sides and CD single extras ... I can source most of yours, but not all. Care to list the sources when you find time? (Holidays being the wrong time to ask, I know!)
Thanks again, I appreciate the loverly labour of love here.
