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,
