Taking Liberties is an Elvis Costello compilation album, consisting of tracks not previously released on his albums as released in the US. It is largely made up of B-sides, but features three previously unreleased recordings. It was released only in the US and Canada; its track listing is very similar to that of the UK release Ten Bloody Marys & Ten How's Your Fathers.

Taking Liberties Elvis Costello. This 1980 set of B-sides and previously unreleased songs is packed with melodic lift and lyrical power, revealing how Elvis Costello could produce quantity with quality. The tunes work together as a whole-a beautifully crooned Rodgers/Hart standard ( My Funny Valentine ) sidles up pretty smoothly next to power-poppers ( Girls Talk, Dr. Luther’s Assistant ), spiky rockers ( Wednesday Week, Clean Money ), and rollicking country throwbacks ( Radio Sweetheart and A Stranger in the House, a silky duet with George Jones).
