Elvis Costello<\/a> collects songs he co-wrote with Paul McCartney and Burt Bacharach and tracks featuring lyrics by Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash on the rocker\u2019s new EP Purse<\/em>, which arrived digitally Friday following its Record Store Day exclusive release in April.<\/p>\n

The four-song EP includes Costello and the Impostors\u2019 take on \u201cThe Lovers That Never Were,\u201d a song co-written by Costello and McCartney that the latter released on his 1993 LP Off the Ground<\/em>. Bacharach and Costello\u2019s \u201cEveryone\u2019s Playing House,\u201d also features; the duo released a collaborative LP in 1998, Painted From Memory<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u201cDown on the Bottom,\u201d a Dylan-penned song previously tackled by the New Basement Tapes, gets a run-through by the Imposters, while Costello also puts Cash\u2019s unrecorded \u201cIf You Love Me\u201d lyrics to music.<\/p>\n
