Graham Parker The Real Macaw (Virgin) . Get past, the corny pun and we've got a slight return to form here. Not a Heat Treatment or a Squeezing Out Sparks, but an album with a better quotient of real songs than Another Grey Area. Sure Parker has smoothed out, the old fever has subsided but he can still write some moving songs; 'Just Like A Man', 'Sounds Like Chains', 'Beyond A Joke' and 'The Smart Bomb' prove that much. Although Parker is no longer the real McCoy there's enough here to indicate’that-he once was. GK
