Graham Parker And The Rumour - Live at Rockpalast (German TV, January 23, 1978)





Graham Parker was one of the greatest talents to emerge from the New Wave, brilliantly mixing R&B, soul, Dylanesque folk, and straight-ahead hard rock. But unlike the later Elvis Costello (who in many ways modeled himself on Parker) he regrettably never became a major star.

This German TV appearance captures him near the height of his powers, complete with 4-piece horn section.

Heat Treatment
White Honey
Soul on Ice
Back to Schooldays
Heat in Harlem
Fool’s Gold
Watch the Moon Come Down
Thunder and Rain
Stick to Me
I’m Gonna Tear Your Playhouse Down
