Description

Toyah's first solo album 'Minx' was released in July 1985 on CBS's label Portrait Records (home at the time to Cyndi Lauper), presenting a sophisticated sound and image for Toyah Willcox who to date had enjoyed eight top 75 singles and five studio albums with the band Toyah. 'Minx' was produced by Christopher Neil, with a line-up featuring Peter Van Hooke, Ian Wherry and Adrian Lee who made up the majority of Mike Rutherford's Mike

+ The Mechanics. The rhythm section of Killing Joke guested on a cover of 'School's Out'. Toyah collaborator Simon Darlow played keyboards and co-wrote several tracks including lead single 'Don't Fall In Love (I Said)'. The album also features unique readings of Latin Quarter's 'America for Beginners' and Rare Bird's 'Sympathy', the latter being the first time Toyah would be heard accompanied by an orchestra. Originally recorded in 1984, this very special 40th Anniversary set expands the album into a deluxe 2CD edition for

the first time. CD1 features the original album with two bonus tracks originally available on the 1985 cassette and CD formats only, plus two non-album B-Sides, two extended 12-inch versions, and a 12-inch remix. CD2 contains 16 rarities of which 14 are previously unreleased, including: The unheard album session demo 'The Fight' and a 7-inch remix of third single 'World in Action'; two previously unreleased home demos of Lou Reed's 'Perfect Day' and Alice Cooper's 'School's Out', recorded by Toyah and Joel Bogen in the spring 1984; two previously unreleased instrumental demos of 'All in a Rage' and 'Snow Covers the Kiss', recorded by Joel Bogen; eight previously unreleased Backing Tracks of 'Minx' songs, retaining their distinctive backing vocals by Toyah.
