Turn It Up To 11 @turnitupto11.bsky.social · 5h Recently got my hands on a vinyl copy of Elvis Costello's Armed Forces for a few bucks. Had the CD version but not the LP (US and Canadian pressings have this cover art; there's another one with a herd of elephants). People usually talk about This Year's Model, Get Happy! and Trust but it's as good.

Love the Barney Bubbles cover!
For me it's slightly weaker than those other three but it's really good. My favorite of the ones you list is Trust and my favorite overall is Kin.g Of America. Also really love The Delivery Man.
Agreed completely, it's just as good as Trust, This Year's Model and Get Happy! Those four are the only ones you need IMO
Does your album have different tracks compared to UK? Top album, I saw them tour it
Used to have the vinyl with the elephants sleeve. Sadly long gone. A brilliant album which I recently purchased again, this time on CD to add to my growing digital music library. Would say this and Trust are my two favourite LPs of his.
