And this is happily one case where rarity doesn't have to mean low quality -- it's not like Elvis ever really cut a bad track (the more dismal moments of Goodbye Cruel World notwithstanding). <br /><br />Puffin, I'm just curious -- which tracks did your collector friend not have? Thanks to you, and you, BB, for being such reliable commenters!<br /><br />Oh, and I don't anticipate any more massive chunks of rarities like these, though I'll keep posting interesting EC boots, for sure. I'm also thinking of doing a series of posts of the Rhino-reissue bonus discs. They're all out of print now -- except, for some reason, Juliet Letters and Mighty Like a Rose, which are still available new from Amazon.<br /><br />And you can call me Jeff -- PopC is my father!

I have a friend who has been collecting Costello ever since he first heard of him back in the late 70's... and you have even put up one or 2 things he didn't have! As for the rest he told me, "Yeah, Ive go most of that stuff on vinyl, it's nice to have it all in one place now. And I can make a disc of it to listen to in the car." You have made both him and me very happy.<br /><br />So... will there be a Volume 4, or have you emptied your vault? Either way I'll keep checking your blog... you have shared some very cool stuff. As we say in Hawai'i...
