Selected Graham Parker set lists, the 70ties

Sat 10/18/75: Newlands Tavern, London, UK

Chain Of Fools / Silly Thing / Between You & Me / Nothin's Gonna Pull Us Apart / The Raid / Don't Ask Me Questions / Rockin' Hawk (The Rumour only) / Gypsy Blood / Not If It Pleases Me / Express Delivery / Back To Schooldays / Soul Shoes
The Rumour only: That's The Way Love Is (Norman Whitfield, Barrett Strong) / Point Of No Return (Jim Ford)

- Some annotations: "Express Delivery" was considered not good enough for "Howlin' Wind," and the instrumental "Rockin' Hawk" finally was released on Martin Belmont's 1995 album called "Big Guitar." Another song that the Rumour did cover at this time in their live sets was Paul Simon's "One Man's Ceiling Is Another Man's Floor." And the gig was still announced as by the "Graham Parker Band."
