When I was 17 and first got this album I was disappointed that there was a lack of anger and caffeine energy as in his previous albums, I just listened to "Fish and Chip Paper", "Watch Your Step" and "Clubland" over and over again ignoring the rest of the cuts. But 20+ years later as an adult all the stuff just sounds great. Like a great novel there's a certain amount of living that is required to be able to understand the beauty of the art. What sticks out for me now is "You'll Never be a Man", - the instrumental backup of the lyrical gymnastics and piano solo sends me into a melancholly daydream every time.
October 12, 2008Somewhat overlooked in the early portion of Elvis's career is this rather unique collection of songs. No classics here, but solid overall. 'Strict Time', 'Lover's Walk' and 'From a Whisper...' are favorites.

i really like this album a lot. if you think the eighties weren't cool then you probably didn't trust elvis.
February 20, 2005'Trust' is, without a doubt, Elvis Costello's most original record; it's also his strongest. One day the critics will wise up, until then, it's our little secret. Buy this.
December 24, 2004As some of the other reviewers have pointed out, its incredibly hard to really pick a "best" EC album between '77 and '86 simply because the man just made some remarkably amazing music. Whats interesting to note about this record is that it followed "Taking Liberties"/"Ten Bloody Marys.." (a collection of b-sides) and "Get Happy!" (an homage to soul). So is this really Costello's fourth album? Theres no denying, its musically closer to the first three releases and by god its really damn good. Theres a few tracks I'm not so hot on like "Shot with his own gun" but the rest is gold. The lyrical maturity shows on tracks like "You'll never be a man", and "Sad about girls" is one the best songs ever left off an album. Listen to this album, weep with joy.
