A bit of a precursor or running alongside Madness. Langer would produce the early Nutty Boys stuff after calling it a day with Deaf School, he might have also been in Big In Japan but I can't verify that.
Has its cockney, Ska lite charm, though Splash the full album does get a bit repetitive towards the end.
Snapshot of 1980. Anyone remember them?

Just had a chance
Agreeable enough isn't it
Madness-esque but somehow lacks their charm
Came across this from the Lost Labels Podcast....
Although best known as a producer, Clive Langer's short-lived group Clive Langer & the Boxes put out an exceptional EP on Radar Records in 1979 and a full-length on F-Beat the following year. In this episode, we also talk to Mr. Langer about his time with the Liverpool-based Deaf School, the seminal punk group Big In Japan, and his later production work alongside Alan Winstanley....
