Graham Parker And The Rumour

Formed in London in 1975. Initially managed by Stiff Records founder [a554666], Graham Parker And The Rumour was put together with former members of Brinsley Schwarz by his management and they became a huge and electrifying live draw, bridging New Wave with the earlier Pub-Rock scene. They recorded five albums together until they split in 1980. Graham Parker And The Rumour also recorded three albums without Parker over the period.
