Red Vinyl ‘Guillotine Theatre’ was the debut album from Cuddly Toys, first released only in Japan in 1979, and then a revamped version in the UK in 1980. Cuddly Toys are the glam-punk band who evolved from the London glam-shock punk band Raped, and often noted for their version of a David Bowie/Marc Bolan unreleased co-write, Madman. Cross-dressing in an era when it was outrageous, their hot-panted Japanese drummer ‘Paddy Phield’ helped them gain fans in his home country. Not on vinyl since the original releases, this double-album version is extended with a whole side of the different Japanese album mixes, two tracks omitted from the UK version, and three 1980 demos from the same line-up. A limited edition in red vinyl, with an obi-strip like the import copies of the Japanese album. An album of Raped recordings was released by US label Puke N Vomit Records in 2024. Singer Sean Purcell died in 1996. A Japanese version of the band, as Cuddly ToyZ led by Paddy, has released an album and regularly gig around Japan.Introvenus, Brain Saviour, Join the Girls, Wolf, Madman, Universe, Slow Down, Astral Joe.
