Reviews & Opinions

PUNKY GIBBON: A compilation containing various singles, and a few rarities, including a special mix of 'Radio Sweetheart', Costello's version of Nick Lowe's '(What's So Funny Bout) Peace, Love And Understanding?', 'Stranger In The House' and (snore!) 'My Funny Valentine'.

Released in the UK in slightly different form as Ten Bloody Marys & Ten How's Your Fathers.
