Elvis Costello's "Spectacle" series plays what will very likely be its final notes Wednesday, and it goes out with a roar: the second part of Costello's interview/jam session with Bruce Springsteen."This is probably the last time I'll do this," Costello said the night they taped the show at the Apollo Theater. "So I'm going to have the time of my life."
To say Costello looked like he was running on empty that night would be inaccurate.
To say he looked like he was running on adrenalin would not.
Fortunately, adrenalin is strong stuff, and he sailed right through a session that was scheduled for about two and a half hours and ran almost twice that.
As anyone who has ever attended a Bruce Springsteen concert knows, Bruce's brand of adrenalin tends to keep him rocking almost indefinitely.
The Springsteen evening yielded enough material for two parts, which show a comfortable Springsteen talking about his career, his music and the art of music.
