To celebrate the 20th anniversary of these original recordings, they've been remastered and re-released in a limited edition package that includes a deluxe booklet with exclusive interviews and more, plus a DVD featuring a 1983 concert, photos, the original "Walking On Sunshine" video and a brand new 2003 video for "Dancing Street". For more info, and to order, visit Bongo Beat records.

Those of you who caught the Soft Boys' Paris outing last March will remember Lee Cave-Berry on bass. Well, Lee's first solo album Spring Forward is out now and features Kimberley Rew and frequent Hitchcock collaborator Deni Bonet, among others. Check out her site for more info.

Robyn appears on Wig in a Box - The Songs from Hedwig and the Angry Inch, a charity album for the Hetrick-Martin Institute. The album features a wide range of performers covering Hedwig songs, and a new song of Robyn's based on Hedwig. Titled "City Of Women," the song also features fellow Soft Boys Kimberley Rew and Morris Windsor, as well as Paul Noble on bass and Terry Edwards on saxophone.

Carved in Rock: Short Stories by Musicians includes a story by Robyn Hitchcock, titled "Narcissus". Edited by Greg Kihn and published by Thunder's Mouth Press, the book was published in April.

As of March 2003, Robyn has left the Soft Boys, the pressure of being in the band and managing it having gotten to be too much, and the bulk of the reunion project being complete, anyway. So there won't be any further Soft Boys gigs... but we'll still be here with CDs, articles, photos, and other goodies for you.
