  • Description


    • 71 track 5 CD clamshell box set covering legendary Punk band The Boys’ period with Safari Records between 1979-81.



    • Disc 1 is the band’s third studio album “To Hell With The Boys” which reached 4 in the Independent Chart in early 1980 and features the Indie Chart hit singles ‘Kamikaze’ (No.9) and ‘Terminal Love’ (No.32).



    • The second disc is 1981’s “Boys Only” album which features the singles ‘You’d Better Move On’ and ‘Weekend’.



    • Disc 3 is a 22 track “Rarities” round-up containing eight previously unreleased studio demos alongside non LP B-sides and rare mixes.



    • The fourth disc is the X rated “Christmas Album” issued under the name The Yobs, which now has three added bonus tracks. Long out of print on vinyl or CD and currently an expensive collector’s item.



    • The final disc is an “In Concert” recording for the BBC in 1980.



    • The 28 page booklet contains detailed track notes by original vocalist Matt Dangerfield and lots of clippings, memorabilia and pictures of all the relevant record sleeves.



    • Matt has also supervised the mastering of all the tracks.



    • The band are still going to this day, 44 years on! And they will be playing again… just as soon as pandemic conditions allow!



    • Promo copies will be sent out to all the leading music publications, both print and on-line, as well as via the bands own social media outlets.
