G.B.H. is an instrumental soundtrack album by English musician Elvis Costello and composer Richard Harvey for the Channel 4's TV series of the same name, released in 1991. It was the first of two collaborations between Costello and Harvey (the second being the score from the series Jake's Progress).[3] It was not available in the U.S. until 1994, when Rykodisc rereleased Costello's entire catalog.[4]
