The Bridge That I Burned
Elvis & A's and I's in the New York Times
Excerpt :"Given the choice between never seeing a vanished band and seeing its reunion, there is always hope that the old spark will return. Sometimes it does. Elvis Costello's 2002 reunion with three-quarters of the Attractions, renamed the Imposters and playing with predatory dynamics, cut the slack out of his songwriting. Joe Jackson's recent tour with his lean but unstoppable late-1970's band stoked his combativeness and his rhythmic kick. Both reunions showed the most auspicious sign: they generated full albums of new songs, proving that the musicians were willing to engage one another instead of just learn the old parts."
