It's the first time that I hear a Graham Parker song - at least that I am aware of. Somehow reminds me strongly on Bruce Springsteen in his early days. Very remarkable! Nice song. Keep it in the rotation. Are there other songs by Graham Parker in the rotation yet? I am eager listening...

Cheers,

Not near enough.

It doesn't matter. Graham Parker is still the greatest and he should have more airplay than he does.
 
{#Clap} Amen to that sister!!!!

One of the great things about Graham Parker is that he was so criminally underplayed that almost everything he did sounds new to me. And I like what I'm hearing.

A lot of his songs were covered by other people--Elvis Costello, Rockpile, Dave Edmunds, Nick Lowe, The Proclaimers, John Hiatt, Huey Lewis. They all knew each other, produced each other's records, played on each others records--so they all had a fairly familiar (Stiff) sound.
