Remastered and expanded release of
Toyah
’s 1982 Top 20 album ‘Warrior Rock -Toyah On
Tour’. Originally released as live double album in October 1982, Warrior Rock was recorded
at Hammersmith Odeon (now Hammersmith Apollo), London across the final two nights of
the tour.
•
The release presents 15 songs centred around material from the band’s Top Ten albums
‘Anthem’ and ‘The Changeling’. The album is named after ‘Warrior Rock’, the B-Side of
Toyah’s 1982 single ‘Brave New World’. The band’s hit singles ‘It’s A Mystery’, ‘I Want To Be
Free’ and ‘Thunder In The Mountains’ all feature on alongside fan favourites ‘Ieya’,
‘Danced’ and ‘War Boys’.

Nick Watson
/Fluid Mastering has remastered the album from the original master tapes,
overseen by
Joel Bogen
.
‘Warrior Rock - Toyah On Tour’ is pressed on transparent green vinyl, echoing the coloured
stage lights that are an integral part of the LP’s front cover, and also nods to the very rare
1980s promo green vinyl pressing.
The album cover has been
refreshed with an updated, vibrant
colour shot scanned from the
negatives captured on the evening
and taken mere moments after the
shot originally used. The LP comes
in a gatefold sleeve and the inner
gatefold features a previously
unseen live colour photograph of
the full live band on stage at
Hammersmith Odeon. The original
backstage photos used on the 1982
pressing now feature on two colour
inner bags, which also feature
further previously unseen live
colour shots.
