GRAHAM PARKER - These Dreams Will Never Sleep: The Best Of Graham Parker 1976-2015 (2016) Lowe, Paul Weller and Bruce Springsteen. Parkers song writing prowess and live intensity lead Springsteen to declare It was 76, that was when Howlin Wind came out and, you know I was just getting my own ball rolling and suddenly I felt all of this heat. I felt all of the heat on my back when I put that record on because it was so good and it was one of those records that youre gonna say every single cut is spectacular. And his voice was soit was one of those cuts through the bullshit voices. His professional music career started in 1975 at the age of 24. After coming to London to find like-minded musicians to play his songs, he formed Graham Parker & The Rumour with Martin Belmont, Brinsley Schwarz, Andrew Bodnar, Steve Goulding and Bob Andrews. They signed a major record deal and recorded the aforementioned Howlin Wolf which was released in early 1976 to widespread acclaim. The bands growth in popularity was rapid and following extensive touring and four albums and an EP, they disbanded in 1980 with Graham going solo and releasing some 25 albums including the standout collections Struck By Lightning, Deepcut To Nowhere and Dont Tell Columbus. In May 2011, The Rumour started working together again after almost 30 years. They recorded Three Chords Good in July of that year and Mystery Glue in 2015. These Dreams Will Never Sleep, The Best Of, 1976-2015 is a Six CD / One DVD boxset celebrating the incredible 40 year career of one of Britain's most seminal songwriters - Graham Parker. Released on 30th September, the 124 track box consists of three anthology discs with some of Grahams best loved recorded work as a solo artist and with The Rumour - one of the UKs pioneering pre-punk bands. The Live At The BBC 19 track disc includes very rare, choice picks from Graham Parker & The Rumours 1979 Live At Hammersmith Odeon show, and Live From BBC Sight and Sound in 1977. Discs five and six are Live From The London Forum, these never before heard recordings are taken from Graham Parker & The Rumours last ever live show in 2015, and also feature the legendary Rumour Brass Section for the first time since 1980. The whopping 34 track DVD is a perfect blend of old and new. A specially recorded live show taken from Graham Parker & The Rumours last ever tour, last year at The Brook in Southampton makes up the first 21 tracks, and this is followed by rare archive solo performances in the late 70s on TV shows including Top of the Pops and The Old Grey Whistle Test. Alongside this, there is a 36 page hardcover book, featuring a new interview with Graham and an overview written by Holly A. Hughes, as well as a poster and 3 postcards.
