For Elvis Costello, eclectic taste and self-reinvention started at home

For British rock star Elvis Costello, music is in his blood. How did his family, like his jazz musician father, influence him while he found his own path as an artist? He joins Jeffrey Brown to discuss his new memoir, “Unfaithful Music and Disappearing Ink,” how his persona and material evolved, plus how he chose his stage name.
