I just saw this on Pitchfork. Apparently, Elvis Costello has a new tv show that airs on the Sundance Channel. He has musical guests on and thei chat and he does interpretations of their songs. Read the article here: http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/article/news/147359-lou-reed-jenny-lewis-she-him-rufus-wainwright-bill-clinton-to-guest-on-elvis-costellos-talk-show

His guests for the first season include (by episode) -
12-03 Elton John
12-10 Lou Reed and Julian Schnabel
12-17 Bill Clinton
12-24 James Taylor
12-31 Tony Bennett
01-07 The Police
01-14 Rufus Wainwright
01-21 Kris Kristofferson, Rosanne Cash, Norah Jones, and John Mellencamp

And the show's official page is - http://www.sundancechannel.com/spectacle/

Does anyone know anything about this? Or has anyone seen it? Better yet, does anyone know where I can watch/download it online?

I've watched every episode of this so far, it's great. Pretty sure they said on the show you can watch them all online, I'm guessing on the show's website.

I hope this lasts awhile though. It's interesting to see Costello interview all these icons, and the music is fantastic.
