10/29/2001 Entry: "Alison"

Here's a tune that is quite possibly one of the best rock ballads ever written. I first heard "Alison" by Elvis Costello when it first came out in the early 80s. And then I didn't think much about it. Then, about 2 years ago, Sue and I were on the way to Augusta, I think, listening to an 80s flashback show on the radio, and they played. I hadn't heard it in years, and had forgotten it. After that listen, I've been addicted to it. And of course, my boss's wife is Alison, and she is a fairly frequent visitor here. So, here's the tune!
