ELVIS COSTELLO &
THE ATTRACTIONS The Best Of Elvis Costello & The Attractions (CBS/Fox Video)
An outstanding collection of 22 separate Costello clips, this is surely a sign of “video albums” to come. From the primitive early stuff—“Pump It Up,” “(I Don’t Want To Go To) Chelsea”—to the more elaborately staged mid-’80s videos— “Everyday I Write The Book” and “The Only Flame In Town”—Costello’s had his hand in just about every music video approach, and it’s all here. Best of the bunch: “I Wanna Be Loved,” directed by “the Rich Kids.” There’s not enough from Imperial Bedroom, but no other complaints whatsoever. D.D.
