A unique, goofy punk band who are really in a category all of their own, the band being basically the child of high pitched frontman/only consistent member, soap opera addict and guitar virtuoso, "Olga" aka Micheal Algar. The Toy Dolls got loosely associated with oi music from their contributions the 1981 "Strength Thru Oi!" compilation, and really made their mark on the public with their following 1982 single, "Nellie The Elephant". They have released a slew of singles, eps and albums over the years, and are a good band to play if you want to infuriate your coworkers and have other men accuse you of being "gay" and/or "fucking retarded". Here's a few of their songs from some of their 80's releases.
Youtube videos of songs from 1980's UK oi bands - from the left to the right - obscure & otherwise. I try to touch base with at least one song from everything in a bands 80's catalog or other noteworthy releases, but the aim is to get whole releases on the page. I am keeping politics out of this shit & as long as a bands sound is mostly Oi! & it's from the UK in the 1980's, then I will put it on here. You all have brains - judge for yourselves.
