ShipBuilding Elvis Costello's or Robert Wyatt's

Both great songs.

I say Elvis's.....just.

Beautiful song.
Fuck the funk - it's time to ditch the worn-out Vegas horns fills, pick up the geee-tar and finally ROCK THE MUTHA-FUCKER!! He hinted at this on Chaos, now it's time to step up and fully DELIVER!!
woot!

Yay for EC fans on the Org!I've never heard Wyatt's (or of him, actually), but that was definitely one of the songs that turned me into a hardcore Costello fan.

Never heard Robert Wyatt's, but E. Costello's version is one of my faves by him
A happy face, A Thumpin Bass, For A Lovin' Race. PEACE.

I absolutely love love love Robert Wyatt - I just listened to Rock Bottom on the way home from work - and Soft Machine, and i'm generally a little luke-warm on Elvis, but I actually prefer the Costello original here.
