\u2022 45th anniversary release of Toyah\u2019s 1980 album \u2018Sheep Farming In Barnet\u2019.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Limited-edition picture disc featuring four stunning unseen colour photographs from the album photography shot at RAF Fylingdales in West Yorkshire. The photos picture Toyah in front of the iconic white “golf balls” that were part of the early warning system for ballistic missiles to the UK and US governments.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Pressed with the 2020 album remaster by Nick Watson, the vinyl comes protected in a PVC sleeve and is housed in a special die-cut outer jacket that carries a further two unseen images unearthed from the archives.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Produced by Steve James and Keith Hale, the album reached number 1 on the UK Independent Albums Chart in February 1980.<\/p>\n

The six-track mini-album \u2018Sheep Farming In Barnet\u2019 contained three tracks per-side on a 33 1\/3 playing 7\u201d vinyl. This mini- album was then expanded to a full length 11-track album (originally for the German market only) in early 1980 by adding the \u2018Victims\u2019 7\u201d A-Side\/B-Sides and some further tracks also recorded at Chappell Studios, London.<\/p>\n

This album contains the fan favourites \u2018Race Through Space\u2019 \u2018Neon Womb\u2019 and \u2018Danced\u2019, all of which went on to become signature songs for the band.<\/p>\n
