Same - no flashbacks - saw Rockpile (which this is, just credited as Nick Lowe - Dave Edmunds on the acoustic, Billy Bremmner on lead and Terry Williams on the skins) stacks of times - got some pictures lurking round somewhere - used an eight string too iirc - One time saw them supporting Wishbone Ash (Laurie Wisefield era) - that was some night...!
I wore out the Rockpile LP! I had the demo from the record store down from my music store I worked at. Mine came with the Everly Brothers ala Edmunds and Lowe EP. I saw them live when they supported that album - one of the best shows I've seen. Nick played a daphne blue P that show - I remember that the vocals were spot on.
And I'm with Carlo - one of fav producers - all of the Elvis Costello he produced are favs as well.
Evidently Edmunds and Lowe had a falling out not long after that album and haven't worked together since - pitty
Now, of course, I have "Knife and Fork" from that album running through my brain
EDIT: Spent the last hour on you tube looking at Rockpile/Nick Lowe stuff - that was fun
Here's the clip with the 8 string:
