 We are proud to present a new project by Jamie Thompson: The Cat's Pyjamas.

The Cat’s Pyjamas is an attempt to cover every song that Elvis Costello has recorded by bands and singers throughout the world. The spirit of The Cat’s Pyjamas is the songs themselves not the musical ability of those doing the covers or any snobbery over production quality....

The project will be hosted here at www.elvis-costello.net with it's own section. Come back often to follow the development! [ http://thecatspyjamas.elvis-costello.net/ ]
