One of the band's earliest recordings, featuring their signature tune "Give It to the Soft Boys", A Can of Bees includes a lot of the zaniness principal member Robyn Hitchcock
would become known for in his later work, but the band had not yet
jelled and found them still in search of their ultimate sound, an
amalgam of new wave and psychedelia. However, the record is essential
to any Soft Boys collection, as it demonstrates the band flying in the
face of what was happening musically at the time and creating their own
unique style. (AMG)
