Elvis Costello: The Elvis Enigma
Peter Silverton, Sounds, 22 March 1980
WHEN I HEARD the first Elvis Costello single, 'Less Than Zero', I figured it was Stiff's mainstay of the time, Nick Lowe, having a bit of fun on the side, creating the most unlikely rock star he could imagine. Jonh Ingham who reviewed the singles for Sounds that week was less kind.
