About this album
High Times gathers the early fire of Graham Parker And The Rumour into a concise, hard-edged compilation that shows why they became one of Britain’s most respected pub rock bands. Issued in 1979, it draws on Parker’s first burst of recordings with the Rumour, where clipped guitar, muscular rhythm and his caustic, street-level lyricism turned songs like Soul Shoes, Heat Treatment and Hey Lord Don’t Ask Me Questions into raw, urgent statements. The set captures the band’s blend of American roots swagger and British tension, and underlines Parker’s reputation as a fiercely intelligent writer whose work helped bridge pub rock and the coming new wave.
