Graham Parker’s appearance at TCAN felt less like a nostalgia act and more like a sharp, unsentimental reckoning with where it all began. Framed around material from his first two albums, Howlin’ Wind and Heat Treatment, the evening became a visit from some old friends.

It was 1978 at Leeds University and I had the good fortune to be a student when his star was rising.
