Newly remastered release of Toyah's 1982 silver- selling album 'The Changeling'. The release continues the re-issue programme of Toyah's entire Safari Records catalogue. Produced by the acclaimed Steve Lillywhite, the album features a line-up of Toyah Willcox (vocals), Joel Bogen (guitar), the late Phil Spalding (bass) and the revered Simon Phillips (drums). The album also features guest synthesizers/ keyboards from Andy Clark (David Bowie's 'Scary Monsters (And Super Creeps)', member of Be-Bop Deluxe) and Simon Darlow. The brass section from Haircut 100 also feature on 'Street Creature'. The album is available on strictly limited-edition neon pink coloured vinyl, reflecting the striking colour of Toyah's ethereal hair from the back cover and in the 'Brave New World' video. A new colour inner bag design features rare imagery plus an additional four-page facsimile of the LP's original insert contains the lyrics to all ten songs on the album plus additional poetry by Toyah Willcox.
