For your weekend viewing pleasure, here's Elvis Costello accompanied by Allen Toussaint, the Crescent City Horns (including Big Sam Williams) and the Imposters, live from the Montreal Jazz Festival on July 3, 2006. This video is 56 minutes long, selected from a 3 hour show--not the "full show" as the YouTube poster mistakenly claims. Still, it's terrific stuff, filmed for broadcast on Bravo! and ARTV networks in Canada.
