"Stereotyped early in his career as the quintessential angry young man, Graham Parker was one of the most successful singer/songwriters to emerge from England's pub rock scene of the early '70s. Drawing heavily from Van Morrison and the Rolling Stones, Parker developed a sinewy fusion of driving rock & roll and confessional folk-rock, highlighted by his indignant passion, biting sarcasm, and bristling anger. At the outset of his career, his albums crackled with pub rock energy, snide witticisms, and gentle insights, earning him a devoted following of fans and critics, who lavished praise on his debut, "
Howlin' Wind". Despite all of the positive word of mouth, Parker never managed to become a star, and he was soon overshadowed by the emergence of Elvis Costello, a singer/songwriter who shared similar roots. After delivering "
Squeezing Out Sparks" in 1979, Parker attempted to make a few crossover albums before settling into a cult following in the late '80s, continuing to garner critical acclaim..."
"During the '90s, Graham Parker released a remarkable number of live albums, which is particularly odd for a performer known for his songwriting, not his performances. The double-disc
The Last Rock N' Roll Tour was presumably released because Parker intended his 1996 excursion with the Figgs to be his final time on the road with a rock & roll band. With the Figgs doing their best Rumour impersonation, Parker runs through a number of his classic songs, as well as selections from recent albums like "
12 Haunted Episodes" and "
Acid Bubblegum". Although the performances are solid, there's no real spark on the record, and therefore, none of these versions are particularly noteworthy. And considering that "
The Last Rock N' Roll Tour" comes on the heels of four live records in as many years, it's puzzling why such a thoroughly average performance was released, especially as a double-disc set. Allmusic

SWEENEY TODD Sweeney Todd lp 1975 London 
Canada's Sweeney Todd is the glam-like outfit that gave rise to the peculiar pop skills of electric dreamer Nick Gilder, a towering magical imp, and meat-and-potatoes professional Bryan Adams. Born in London and raised in Vancouver, Gilder joined Rasputin with high school friend and guitarist Jim McCulloch. The band evolved into Sweeney Todd, an obviously theatrical para-pop 10cc-type-unit that quickly ensnared a local following. Producer Martin Shaer caught the act at a high school gymnasium and soon London Records signed and released Sweeney Todd in 1975. Thanks to the delectable groupie-ode "Roxy Roller," written by Gilder and McCulloch, Sweeney Todd quickly ruled the Great White North. Chrysalis Records wooed Gilder and McCulloch to Los Angeles and the duo bolted, leaving Sweeney Todd without a creative impetus.
Clark Perry took over the lead role and the band recorded a different rendering of "Roxy Roller" before Perry was replaced by a 15-year-old Bryan Guy Adams who had pestered Shaer into an audition. Adams sang on yet another "Roxy Roller" and accepted a Juno on behalf of the Gilder version. Sweeney Todd's If Wishes Were Horses features the earliest Bryan Adams' songs, as well as holdovers from Gilder and McCulloch (including the excellent "Tantalize"). "Song for a Star" details Adams' attempts at mimicking the Bolan-like-brainiac Gilder: "Stepping in time with your pace, though we never yet met face to face." Gilder released a fourth rendition of "Roxy Roller" on his solo debut, You Know Who You Are. His second LP, the legendary City Nights, yielded the immortal one-hit-wonder "Hot Child in the City." Meanwhile, Adams fell out of favor with Sweeney Todd after exhaustive touring in support of If Wishes Were Horses, and split to return to high school.
A year later, in 1978, Adams happened upon his soon-to-be songwriting partner, Prism's Jim Vallance, in a music store. The duo penned songs for a plethora of established stars until Adams reached solo superstar status in the mid-'80s. Sweeney Todd labored on with new manager Ron Wright until 1978. Gilder re-formed the band in the late '90s.
