Cool, quirky rhythms and lyrics, combined with advanced musicianship made
The Bobs a standout band on the scene. Drummer Bobby Tak, having cut his
teeth with local heroes The Cichlids, joined
Bob
Rupe and Kevin
MacIvor to make this three-piece an excellent new wave (for that was
the word at the time) band. This edition combines The Bobs first e.p.
with the rare live cassette In Public to present the original
band as they were. A later album (White Gazebo) although excellent in
its own right, lacked Tak on drums and made for a less Bobs-like Experience.
Safety Net Records informs us that official Bobs reissues are in the
