About this episode
We've got a favorite from the Bullseye archives: Elvis Costello. The legend is celebrating the 49th anniversary of his debut album My Aim is True. Recently, a five CD box set was released to commemorate the occasion. The release features 104 tracks, with over 50 never-before-heard recordings on it. When Elvis Costello joined us he talked about his father's career and love of music, what inspired him to write a memoir and who knows him by his legal name: Declan McManus. A version of this interview originally aired in October of 2015.
