Product Details

Nick Lowe spent decades as the backbone of British pub rock and power pop, producing Elvis Costello, Brinsley Schwarz, and the Pretenders while quietly perfecting his own craft as a songwriter's songwriter. By the time he recorded The Old Magic, he had fully embraced the understated, late-night intimacy that defines his later work, a sound built on restraint and melody rather than bombast.


Of Nick Lowe, NPR once observed, ''Few musicians get better with age, Nick Lowe is an exception.'' While it's undeniable that his last album garnered Lowe the best reviews -- dubbed ''utterly fantastic,'' by The Village Voice -- of his career and his best one-week sales in the Soundscan era, there is little doubt that he has always been at the forefront of modern music.
