Ophelia's Shadow (Deluxe Edition)

Toyah's 1991 solo album 'Ophelia's Shadow' is released as an expanded Deluxe 2CD Edition for the first time ever. Packaged in deluxe 7-inch-sized gatefold packaging, it continue the series of expanded solo Toyah albums released by Edsel. Alongside the studio album that features Robert Fripp playing guitar on two tracks, CD1 adds six tracks Toyah recorded in 1993 with Kiss of Reality, previously available on a very rare CD released only in Germany. CD2 adds a full 1992 concert recording of Toyah and Kiss of Reality in Warsaw, Poland. All 10 live tracks are previously unreleased with highlights being the otherwise unrecorded vocals for 'Amazon', 'Daydreaming' and 'Shirt of the Muse' plus a rendition of Toyah's 1987 album track 'Revive the World'. A selection of 1992 demos Toyah recorded with Kiss of Reality in Berlin also feature including 'Dan the Man' plus three demos (previously available only on a strictly limited self-released cassette) making this a treasure trove of Toyah rarities. The booklet contains rare and previously unseen colour photography from the original album shoot. A new sleevenote by Toyah archivist Craig Astley chronicles the making of the album with reflections from Toyah herself on why this album is a personal favourite and so important to her.
