Elvis Costello & The Imposters
With Allen Toussaint, The Crescent City Horns, Anthony "AB" Brown
Beacon Theatre, New York, NY
June 10, 2006
This show is for those who love Elvis Costello, but especially for those who love Allen Toussaint
and the sound of the music from New Orleans (where I lived for much of the late 70's and early
80's). I can say no more than this recording lives up to my own standards of excellence and is the
best I've heard from this tour thus far.
Recorded from the 2nd Row of the Loge, 4 seats right of center.
Recorded, Extracted and Edited by TaperAdvocat, uploaded to the Dime on July 11, 2006.

Note for first 35 seconds of introduction the rumbling noise you hear is me setting up my
equipment. Things moved very fast once the lights went down.
Hope you all enjoy this recording as much as I do. Please let me know what you think. And
most importantly, share it freely with your loved ones and friends.
May those who try to sell or otherwise profit from my recording be cursed with all the bad karma
that you justly deserve. This means you Middle Valley, VGP & all you other scum sucking
bootleggers who profit from my recordings. We will find you and we will put you out of
business.
