The first time I ever heard of Elvis Costello was watching this "false start" performance on Saturday Night Live as a kid. Not sure why it's at an angle but it's the only one I could find.
As one commenter said, Don Pardo intro, false start, and scorching Radio Radio. Then they walk off the stage. Rock n roll.

I make no apologies for posting this on what is predominantly a rock and folk thread but as an ex Wigan Casino boy back in the day all my memories came flooding back last night at the Sage [Glasshouse now I ask you] Gateshead for a rerun of the Northern Soul prom from last years set of concerts hosted by Stuart Maconie . I'd say 90% plus of the people were like me creaking but reliving those heady days of spins and shuffles if not a little slower and energetic than yesteryear but with perhaps even more passion it was just brilliant

I love this version of Done with Bonaparte. A Celtic vibe with the late master Piper Liam O'Flynn, Seán Keane of the Chieftains on fiddle and Donal Lunny, left handed on bouzouki.

Although I can appreciate early Beatles and other rock music of that ilk, I actually like classic music (think Beethoven, Bach, etc.). Yes, that music.
My cue to repost this aria from The Marriage of Figaro by Mozart, featured in the Shawshank Redemption. Mozart crammed about 800 works into his short but prolific life. I love this piece of music.
Yeah I'm more into Maneskin and Marilyn Manson.

My current favorite is Knoxville: Summer of 1915, Samuel Barber's setting of James Agee's text from A Death in the Family, performed by Renée Fleming.

A ballad written about a deadly storm on the east coast of England that took place Feb 8-9, 1889, in which several fishing vessels were lost and 70-80 men were killed. Singer Johnny McEvoy was very big in the seventies in particular, still alive aged 79/80
