Photographer’s notes

“Here Elvis Costello is performing on the first Stiff Records tour which also included Ian Dury, Nick Lowe, Wreckless Eric and Larry Wallis. Elvis was promoting his debut single ‘Less Than Zero’ and hit album ‘My Aim Is True’. He was very different from the other performers on tour. He was quite aloof and didn’t really communicate with the audience unlike the other acts who were far more engaging. Nonetheless Elvis would be the most successful, finding worldwide musical success.” — David Corio
