Elvis Costello is one of the best contemporary songwriters, and certainly the most, uh, rigorous, who also hopes to be popular. This has made for difficulties. His initial widespread acclaim, accompanied by widespread record sales, leveled off with 1980�s Get Happy!!—by me, his best ever—and has never really risen above respect and admiration and modest sales since.
