Dangerous Amusements: the Elvis Costello playlist
Music:Music Commentary
A L Kennedy is an award-winning author, playwright, comic and performer. Among her acclaimed works is a collection of short stories named after the Elvis Costello song, All The Rage.
In this episode, she tells me about her love of Costello’s music and his use of language. We also dig deep into Tramp The Dirt Down with a fascinating reflection on Britain in the 1980s and the anger towards Margaret Thatcher which inspired Costello’s totemic song.
You can visit A L Kennedy’s website here. Her song choices are on the Bedroom Alibis playlist.
