Fegmania! is the fourth studio album by Robyn Hitchcock and his first with his backing band The Egyptians.
The Egyptians included the former Soft Boys Andy Metcalfe and Morris Windsor.
"The Man with the Lightbulb Head" was conceived on Archway Road in London and provided a springboard for Hitchcock's first attempt at film making for a promotional video. Stills from the video were reproduced as cover art for the front and back of the LP sleeve.
The album was quickly followed by the live album, Gotta Let This Hen Out!, recorded at one gig at The Marquee Club in Wardour Street, London.
