Dreamscape | The Toyah Willcox Fansite

As Toyah’s new studio album, Future Dreaming, is being finalised for release, take a look back – via Dreamscape’s huge news archive – at Toyah’s most recent studio album, Posh Pop.

Upon its release, almost five years ago, the album received great reviews from a number of magazines, there were some great articles published focusing on the album, fan reaction to the release was universally positive too. Toyah filmed videos for every song, and toured the album in late 2021/early 2022.

Toyah wrote and recorded each song almost entirely on her own – with only collaboration and input from Simon Darlow and Bobby Willcox. Toyah also filmed each video and captured all of the associated promo shots/photos with little outside assistance. Amazing!

The album charted at #22 on the Official UK Album Chart. Posh Pop became Toyah’s highest charting studio album since 1982, when The Changeling peaked at #6.

NB. When I look at the huge archive this website has created over the past 26+ years, and the work involved, when I could have not bothered to do any of it, I sometimes wonder why there’s been so much animosity directed at me, and I could name names. It’s just odd, but then it’s been going on for fucking decades now! I guess enthusiasm and positivity is threatening to it’s opposites!!

A new Toyah track with Simon Darlow and Bobby Willcox features on the album release Miniatures 2020. The track Future Dreaming is what Simon Darlow describes as a “theatre production in 3 parts that had to fit in a minute … from star birth to the peace of the infinite.”

Former Mott The Hoople keyboardist Morgan Fisher released an obscure underground album in 1980 called “Miniatures”. It was effectively a collection of 52 “miniature masterpieces”, i.e. tracks of one minute length or less by a myriad of music legends and cult figures. Although at the time, the album flew pretty much below the radar it has over the years had a lasting and continually growing influence.
