Transcription
Background
The band formed in 1988 and played a short tour under the name Fripp Fripp, during which Toyah performed material from her then-most recent album Prostitute as a support act.[3][4] Then, having changed their name to Sunday All Over the World, they played more dates in 1989. Kneeling at the Shrine was the band's first and only studio album, released by E.G. Records in 1991, after which they disbanded. The album does not include all songs that the band was performing at the concerts.[5] Two of those songs, "Brilliant Day" and "Lords of the Never Known", were released around the same time on Toyah's solo album Ophelia's Shadow.[6] Although Willcox and Fripp are a married couple since 1986, this band was one of the few instances in which the two musicians worked together professionally.
