For our final episode of Season 6, we're joined by TRGMH super-fan Tom Lawery as we explore a classic of neo-psychedelic post-punk, The Soft Boys' seminal 1980 release: 'Underwater Moonlight'. Robyn Hitchcock's jangly, twisted pop songs were hugely influential to a slew of 80s alternative bands, and we could hardly contain our glee at revisiting this timeless classic of a record!
