Years before Joe Jackson’s Denson shoes hit the streets, we had Graham Parker’s “Soul Shoes” to keep our toes tapping.
This promotional elpee captures the fresh energy of Graham Parker and the Rumour flush with their first success.
Imagine if Bruce Springsteen and Elvis Costello had a baby. Now try not imagining it.
A candy-coated treat featuring a joyous version of The Trammps’ 1975 hit, “Hold Back the Night.”
An early critical darling, the bloom was off the rose for Parker and the Rumour.
Parker gets out of his contract with Mercury Records, and you get three-fourths of a double live album.
A compilation of the last four RCA albums plus a pair of unreleased tracks. Success, indeed.
Old wine in new wineskins, the best of Blackwell can still be found on Elvis Presley records.
