Queen Elvis was the first Robyn Hitchcock album I ever bought. I was browsing in a record store in Iowa City and just happened across it. I’d never heard of Hitchcock until that moment but the title Queen Elvis was too much for me to resist, so I bought it. The opening track, Madonna of the Wasps, was my favorite song of the bunch but I love the whole album.
This is Robyn Hitchcock & The Egyptians American television debut on David Letterman, performing Madonna of the Wasps. I’ve never heard the intro on this version until just now. Found at YouTube from smile67.
This is Hitchcock performing Madonna of the Wasps at Pestival in 2009. Found at YouTube from parodyofjames.
And this is original studio version. Found at YouTube from sqwbussy.
