"A Can Of Bees" by The Soft Boys (1979)
CLASSIC ALBUM OF THE WEEK
The Soft Boys "A Can Of Bees"  1979 (UK)
The Soft Boys were probably the first of the 60's revival bands of the 1980's -- in fact their debut album actually came out in the 1970's. Their second LP Underwater Moonlight (1980) is their most reknowned, but I have always preferred their debut, which is less of a pop album and more of a furious guitar frenzy. Singer/songwriter Robyn Hitchcock went on to have a successful solo career in the 80's/90's "college rock" era, and remains a respected cult figure and charming performer today.
