THE SOFT BOYS
ROBYN HITCHCOCK, KIMBERLEY REW, MORRIS WINDSOR, MATTHEW SELIGMAN*,
ANDY METCALFE, JIM MELTON
Blissful post-punk weirdness, fueled by the winding guitar of Kimberley Rew and the warped songwriting
vision of Robyn Hitchcock. The Soft Boys have turned out to be one of the most influential bands
in shaping contemporary alternative music, though few are completely familiar with the quirky
band's legacy. Formed in Cambridge, England in 1976 on the heels of the punk revolution,
the Soft Boys eschewed the three-chord nihilism of punk and opted for a crude version
of psychedelic/folk-rock that was well on its way out of fashion,
but oddly, just on the cusp of a resurgence...

RECORD EX but (please, read above description)
SLEEVE NEAR EX but (please, see pictures and read above description)
A collection of lost recordings and previously unreleased tracks, a number of this album's cuts remain Soft Boys
classics, like "Rock 'n' Roll Toilet," "Wey Wey Hep Uh Hole," "Have a Heart Betty (I'm Not Fireproof)," and "He's a Reptile."
Most of the songs were recorded in 1978-79 during the sessions prior to A Can of Bees and Underwater Moonlight,
and though it isn't as strong as the latter, it is essential to the Soft Boys collector,
their recorded output is so spare that every last detail is crucial...(AllMusic)
