"Pretty Flamingo." Elvis Costello, Difford and Tillbrook of Squeeze, and Nick Lowe live at Montreux.
Contrary to what intrepid commentator Gummo said downstairs, I don't think this song is silly at all.

I knew that word was gonna get me in trouble.
What a great line-up -- I'm gonna watch this when I'm not stuck working!
I need to Google this -- I forget who wrote it. If memory serves it was some Brill Building guy who never had another hit...
I've always liked songs that have part or all of the melody over one chord like the first lines of this one -- you get a melodic drone going on that's very hypnotic -- the only other one I can think of off the top of my head is There Is A Mountain by Donovan -- almost the whole song is one chord, which is why it was such a popular jamming number with the Dead, the Allmans, etc.....
Ah, Google IS my friend.
The guy who wrote "Pretty Flamingo" was in fact, a Brill Building denizen named Mark Barkan.
His later claim to fame is he co-wrote the Banana Splits theme, which means he definitely commands respect from mere mortals such as I.
Wow, lots and lots of talent and little grey cells on that stage. Great clip.
