Compilation – Live Stiffs Live – Cassette

In order to promote their label and their roster, Stiff Records devised the Live Stiffs package tour as way to showcase all of their key artists (Elvis Costello, Nick Lowe, Ian Dury, Wreckless Eric, Lew Lewis Reformer), as well as themselves. The Live Stiffs shows became notorious for their intoxicatingly (and intoxicated) ragged performances, which the live album Live Stiffs captures particularly well. Elvis Costello’s torchy version of Bacharach-David’s “I Just Don’t Know What to Do With Myself” is a highlight, as are Nick Lowe’s two cuts, the otherwise-unavailable “Let’s Eat” and a rocking version of “I Knew the Bride,” which he never released during the late ’70s. Dury and Wreckless Eric are nearly as good, and the entire record captures the wild, careening spirit of Stiff — it’s fun, trashy rock & roll.
