Sound of Vinyl

Cherry Red Records is delighted announce the newly re-mastered release of Toyah’s 1980 album “The Blue Meaning”, the second disc in a reissue programme of Toyah’s entire Safari Records catalogue.

Produced by Steve James and ‘Toyah’ the band – Joel Bogen, Pete Bush, Toyah Willcox, Steve Bray and Charlie Francis, the album reached number 1 on the UK Independent Album Chart and charted in the main UK Top 40 album chart in June 1980.

The album includes the ultimate fan favourite ‘Ieya’ considered a signature song by the band, which was also released as a single.

This album also includes ‘Blue Meanings’, ‘Mummies’ and the psychedelic ‘Spaced Walking’ for which Toyah’s vocals were recorded after inhaling helium.

THIS PUNK/NEW WAVE CLASSIC ALBUM IS BEING RE-ISSUED IN TWO FORMATS AND THIS VINYL LP FEATURES:

Strictly limited edition neon pink coloured vinyl echoing Toyah’s hair colour from the back sleeve and the colourful glow surrounding the gothic mansion, Wykehurst Place in Sussex on the LP’s front cover artwork.

Brand new inner bag features rare and unseen imagery of Toyah.

Official lyrics for the album are also included.
