Hot As A Pistol, Keen As A Blade - Elvis Costello And Allen Toussaint

Description


Recorded live in Montreal in 2006, during his month long tour in support of "The River in Reverse," a collaboration with New Orleans musician Allen Toussaint and featuring his regular backing group, The Imposters, along with Toussaint and his New Orleans Horn Section, The Crescent City Horns.

In the wake of Hurricane Katrina, Costello and Toussaint began the collaboration that resulted in "The River in Reverse." The album includes new and old compositions by Toussaint, several songs co-written by Toussaint and Costello, plus one new Costello original, the title track.

Musicians featured on the project include The Imposters, as well as Toussaint's horn section and guitarist. Presented in 5.1 surround sound, this amazing DVD includes incredible live performances of Elvis songs spanning the last four decades.
