Here's something all the critics can agree on: Elvis Costello's first three albums are among the greatest records ever made. Mobile Fidelity remastered each title from the original master tapes and pressed them onto limited-edition 180-gram vinyl. For the first time ever, hear Costello's landmark 1977 debut My Aim Is True, 1978's caustic masterpiece This Year's Model and 1979's pop-fueled favorite Armed Forces in dynamic, analog sound! Each record features the original U.K. art. Pump it up!
My Aim Is True announces the arrival of a singular talent. One of the greatest debut albums ever recorded, the 1977 set hasn't lost any of the vibrant urgency, lyrical edge or biting wit that made Costello the pin-up model for new-wave music. Blending punk-fueled motivation with pub-rock, reggae and classic American rock n' roll strains, the landmark effort includes many of the singers' best-known tunes: "Alison," "Watching the Detectives" and "Mystery Dance" included.
