Two CDs + NTSC/Region 0 DVD. Digitally remastered and expanded edition of Toyah's 1980 album The Blue Meaning, the second in a reissue program of Toyah's entire Safari Records catalogue. This expanded edition features 27 remastered bonus tracks including single mixes, live tracks, rarities and unheard demos. Amongst the 20 previously unreleased tracks are the final recordings made by this band line-up including 'Silence Won't Do' and 'Jack & Jill', as seen being recorded on the 1980 ITV documentary Toyah and have been long awaited by fans for forty years. The very first demo of 'Angels & Demons' recorded at Eel Pie Studios, an Alternate Vocal take of 'Blue Meanings' with the previously unheard original longer song outro and three tracks recorded live at the ICA London all make their debuts. A sleevenote by Toyah's archivist Craig Astley with input from Toyah Willcox and Joel Bogen which for the first time chronicles the creation of the album and reveals the recording origins of the bonus material.
