Come In Handies/S.O.B.S.

MoNoMeN was a new wave band from Arnhem, The Netherlands that existed from 1978 to 1981. The band's original lineup was Ed van Kasteren, lead vocals. Frits van Erpers Roijaards on guitar, Robert Schakel on lead guitar, Ronald Mulder on bass, Jan Dries Groenendijk, drums. Hans van Woudenberg, sax. And Hugo Sinzheimer (The Meteors), with a special guest appearance on Come in Handies.

During the mix of the A-side, entered Emile Elsen. Probably because he wanted to get to work as soon as possible, he helped out. However, as it turned out, in later years, he would become Idiot’s number-one recording and mixing engineer.

After the release of this single, recording sessions for an album started, but due to the strange disappearance of the lead singer, the project never concluded.

The original 7” vinyl was released in a transparent cover.
