{"product_id":"this-years-model-uk","title":"This Year's Model [UK]","description":"THIS YEAR'S MODEL is packaged with a 28-page booklet that includes rare photos and printed song lyrics.\u003cbr\u003eElvis Costello \u0026amp; The Attractions: Elvis Costello (vocals, guitar); Steve Nieve (keyboards); Bruce Thomas (bass); Pete Thomas (drums).\u003cbr\u003eAdditional personnel: Mick Jones (guitar); Davey Payne (saxophone).\u003cbr\u003eProducer: Nick Lowe.\u003cbr\u003eReissue producers: Gary Stewart, Val Jennings.\u003cbr\u003eRecorded between August 1977 and October 1978. Originally released on Columbia (35331). Includes liner notes by Elvis Costello.\u003cbr\u003eAll tracks have been digitally remastered.\u003cbr\u003eFor his second album, Elvis Costello fine-tuned his aesthetic by abandoning the California studio cat accompanists of his debut for the more aggressive, quirky and very British Attractions, who would define EC's sound over the next several years. Where MY AIM IS TRUE highlighted Costello's rootsy influences (the Band, etc.), THIS YEAR'S MODEL wholeheartedly embraces the \"new wave\" out-with-the-old mindset, favoring tightly wound ferocity over back-porch-isms.\u003cbr\u003eIrresistibly catchy, in a twitchy, neurotic, white-knuckled way, THIS YEAR'S MODEL is Costello at his edgiest. The classic \"Pump It Up\" pummels the listener with garage-band organ, pounding drums, and HIGHWAY 61 REVISITED-style ranting. \"Radio, Radio\" turned into something of an anti-authoritarian anthem for Costello. The snaky guitar and reggae-tinged drums of \"I Don't Want to Go to Chelsea\" complement his verge-of-a-nervous-breakdown vocal performance nicely. Come to think of it, so does nearly everything else here.","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45361846812959,"sku":"602438261482","price":36.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/7859e6576ef256cd2d04976aa58f5886_adc53b38-db1a-4d34-a567-b06592bdee7c.jpg?v=1715692094","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/this-years-model-uk","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
