Great, thanks for charing this, I've never seen it before.
A little furhter down on that page, under the videos, there is a link
to when Costello
plays "Penny Lane" for President Obama and Paul McCartney in the White
House.
I hadn't seen that one either, it's quite the opposite to the SNL
clip, but still enjoyable.

Back in 1977 my housemates & I made a point to watch that particular
SNL show (still lived in Raleigh, NC) because of course we were
expecting to see The Sex Pistols, but I for one was bowled over by the
UK Elvis. There's some stuff in this story which I'd never known, such
as where he'd gotten the idea for switching songs midstream.

The original SNL video is linked in the story, as is his return
appearance, and also linked is a video of EC's inspiration.
Cheers,
