I have this song on an old beat up cassette somewhere- haven't heard it in years. I forgot how much I like it. And this video~~ low budget, cheezy, GREAT!
Squeezing out ... ( 7 months ago by biakeyholedave)
Squeezing out Sparks most under-rated album ever. Thank goodness after all this time I can see I'm not alone. Yeah, similarities with Costello very noticeable, and at the time GP was not far behind in terms of exposure, but for whatever reason didn't go on.
Sickener to see so many multi-millionaires from that period but presumably not GP.
TOP MAN!

If my memory serves ... ( 6 months ago by takinglibertys)
If my memory serves me right, SOS (Squeezing Out Sparks) was beat out by "Afternoon Delight' - Starland/Starlight Vocal Group for a Grammy in '76 or '77. The 70's were so pathetic. GP, you surely deserved so much better.

Parket and a ton of other guys deserved better than the exposure they got. Don't tell me that "Girls Talk" (Rockpile) or "Teenage Kicks (the Undertones) aren't damn great songs.

....well, yeah you guys, i definitely agree...
under rated. I kind of view Graham as the
american equivanent of Elvis Costello,(as talented )but, who either through bad promotion,shady contracts, or under funding was summarily remanded to reletive obscurity...time will tell! Jason
yeah, Graham Parker ... ( 5 months ago by manwithnoname123)
yeah, Graham Parker reminds me of another personal favorite, too - Elvis Costello. both musicians were putting out some of the best music of the late '70's and '80's but never really enjoyed the broad commercial success that they deserved. And both fronted nonpareil backing bands - Parker with the Rumour and Costello with the Attractions. they don't get any better than that, folks!!!

I remember going to see Cheap Trick,(who I love), and GP was the opener. Guess what album I bought the next day? "Squeezing Out Sparks"!! Still in heavy rotation.

Squeezing Out Sparks didn't come out until 1979, so your timeline is a bit off.

God, these were terrific times! Graham Parker, Elvis Costello, Joe Jackson and even Devo gave hope to the geeky and awkward types among us. People who could actually perform, write and sing about meaningful stuff and still rock. We need more of this today!

Ahhh, what a great song, hann't seen this video in probably over 25 years, back in the early MTV days, when they actually only played music videos. As for Graham Parker, very, very underated, and yes in the same vein with Elvis Costello, Devo and Marshall Crenshaw.
