fantastic punk classic from 1983, the toy dolls evolved out of the early 80s oi oi scene in the uk however they did not sound anything like there counterparts like the buissness, the exploited, 4 skins, cock sparrer or the angelic upstarts, they threw a lot of humor into there songs and made themselves out to be more like a cartoon punk band, fun to watch live and great songs to go with them, of all the oi bands the toy dolls even had a big following in japan in the late 80s and early 90s, they started out in 1979 but no recorded output would be heard until 1982 with the original version of nellie the elephant, on this great captain oi reissue you get some of the tracks recorded during 1982, as for this debut album it is about the best the toys ever did becouse it got them huge very fast, some of the songs on here are some of there best and DIG THAT GROOVE became a whole new trend at this time, this album is as good as A FAR OUT DISC(1984), IDOL GOSSIP (1986 ) & BARE FACED CHEECK (1987) the toys did some good records in the 1990s as well but this was there prime era for me, the 1989 album wackey wackey was ok but lacking and not as spot on as these first 4 where, great band they where!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! also lots of energy live.
