I've heard several of his other efforts (both before and after this one) but none struck me as even being in the same ballpark as SOS. I listen to this one regularly but I've given up even looking for his latest stuff. This is not a flame: Parker could easily have developed into another Elvis Costello (well, maybe not... ;-) ). If you can recommend any of his later records as highly as SOS I'll probably give them a listen. Here's hoping... Chris J.
