Cherry Red Records is delighted to announce the newly remastered release of Toyah’s 1982 Silver-selling album “The Changeling”. The release continues the reissue 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 features on Street Creature.

The Changeling is the darker, more grown-up sequel to the previous year’s Gold-selling album Anthem. The Changeling entered the UK Top 40 in June 1982, peaking at number 6, it spent twelve weeks on the chart and was awarded a Silver sales certification.
