Album

Spike is the 12th studio album by the British rock singer and songwriter Elvis Costello, and his first since My Aim Is True without the Attractions, released on compact disc as Warner Brothers 25848. It was his first album for the label and peaked at No. 5 on the UK Albums Chart. It also reached No. 32 on the Billboard 200 thanks to the single and his most notable American hit, Veronica, which reached No. 19 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 1 on the US Modern Rock chart.

After making Blood and Chocolate in 1986, Elvis Costello broke up long time backing band, the Attractions and seemingly disappeared from recording music. There was a near three year gap between Blood and Chocolate and Spike, unusual for the prolific artist. During this time, he wrote songs with Paul McCartney. The hit song Veronica and Pads, Paws, and Claws appeared on the album. Elvis Costellos 12th studio album is a stylistic buffet boasting stellar guests-Roger McGuinn, Paul McCartney, Chrissie Hynde-and songs confronting both the personal and the political. The death-row screed of Let Him Dangle, the deceptive anti-Thatcher beauty Tramp the Dirt Down, and the poppy Veronica about Costellos Alzheimers-stricken grandmother all show remarkable songwriterly empathy and depth. Elsewhere, New Orleans ensemble The Dirty Dozen Brass Band enlivens the soul-deep Deep Dark Truthful Mirror, and traditional Irish instrumentation lifts Miss MacBeth. Costellos pla.
