Actually, I don't think this is true. I believe that Eddie started this whole thing off by saying that the later years (I'm not sure if he specifically said the Arista years) were better than the earilier ones. I am pretty sure that that is what Rex was responding to (and then I responded to him).

Aparently Robyn's favourite cheese is Mimolette... http://billtmiller.com/coolidgehitchcock/ Oh, and also otherwise this vid is interesting... but I think it has been linked here long before... so I was focussing on the cheese :-) Wikipedia: The mites burrow tiny holes in the surface of the cheese and are sometimes intentionally introduced to flavour cheeses like /Milbenkdse / and aged /Mimolette /. Cheese that is infested with the mites can have a sweet, minty odor and will appear to be covered in a fine gray dust of the mites, their dander and excrement. Good night :-) ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 17 Nov 2010 02:46:25 +0100 From: FurryGreen Subject: No Chips Alone: The Soft Boys Saga By Robyn Hitchcock "The Soft Boys will reissue their cult albums A Can Of Bees and Underwater Moonlight on November 15 on Yep Roc.
