1980 saw the release of _"Underwater Moolight"_ from the soon to be very influential British power-house of a band, _**The Soft Boys**_. Robyn Hitchcock on vocals, Andy Metcalf on bass (would leave in '79 to join "Squeeze" then joined up with "XTC" in '85), Kimberley Rew on guitars (later would form "Katrina and the Waves") and Morris Windsor on drums (played later with "Thompson Twins"). Forming in '76 they would release an EP in '77, followed by their first LP in '79, "Can of Bees". But the release of their second, and last, album would receive the most attention over the years. The majority of the original band would later join up again to record under the name "Robyn Hitchcock and the Egyptians". After the 2001 re-issue of this album the Soft Boys reunited to tour and subsequently record another album for 2002.
