Search - Rumour :: Max

When The Rumour formed in 1975, they were looked on as a type of 'Pub Rock Supergroup'. Though perhaps best remembered as the backing band for Graham Parker during his late '70s heyday, The Rumour actually released 3 albums under their own name, between 1977 &1980. They also worked extensively as a house band for Stiff Records, and backed Elvis Costello on 'Watching the Detective. The band's loose, jamming style flits comfortably between roots rock, country, pop & reggae and the album still sounds incredibly fresh today, 30 years after it was recorded. The accompanying CD booklet features the original LP artwork and includes liner notes by The Rumour's Steve Goulding, plus rare photographs from the band's own archive and full lyrics to every track.
