Toy Dolls - Fat Bob's Feet (LP)
When Fat Bob’s Feet was released by Receiver Records in 1991, it found Sunderland’s cheeky punk act Toy Dolls welcoming bassist John Casey into the fold, the latest in a long line joining founding frontman Olga and drummer Martin Yule, who’d been present since Bare Faced Cheek. The favourites here include ‘The Sphinx Stinks’, ‘Bitten By A Bed Bug’ and the immortal ‘Kids In Tyne & Wear’, a northeast England punk recasting of Kim Wilde’s ‘Kids In America,’ plus there’s a guest appearance by Ashbrooke, Olga’s dog, and, unusually for the band, no sign of any symphonic interludes. A much-loved Toy Dolls classic!
