The ‘capture the moment’ approach of the recording sessions are extended to the sleeve artwork designed by Bowie featuring a photo of him as a baby with a contemporary face. The package also contains a 16-page full-colour book featuring previously unseen photographs by Frank Ockenfels 3.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 7.5pt 0cm 0cm 0cm;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"margin: 7.5pt 0cm 0cm 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Helvetica',sans-serif; color: #333333;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-family: 'Helvetica',sans-serif; color: #333333;\"\u003eThe seeds of TOY were first sown in 1999 during the making of an episode of VH-1 Storytellers. David wanted to perform something from his pre-‘Space Oddity’ career, so he reached back to 1966 and dusted off ‘Can’t Help Thinking About Me’ for the first time in thirty years. The song remained in the setlist for the short promotional tour for the ‘hours…’ album, and in early 2000 David and producer Mark Plati compiled a list of some of Bowie’s earliest songs to re-record.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 7.5pt 0cm 0cm 0cm;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"margin: 7.5pt 0cm 0cm 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Helvetica',sans-serif; color: #333333;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-family: 'Helvetica',sans-serif; color: #333333;\"\u003eTOY finishes with a new song from which the album takes its title, 'Toy (Your Turn To Drive)’ was constructed from a jam at the end of one of the live takes of ‘I Dig Everything’. The track is based around rearranged sections of Sterling Campbell's drums, Gail Ann Dorsey's bass and sections of Mike Garson’s piano were looped along with a guitar line of Earl Slick’s that was sampled, time stretched and used as a repeating figure. Lastly, some of Holly and Emm’s backing vocals from the body of ‘Dig Everything’ were cut up and reassembled. Producer Mark Plati \"As it was culled from ‘I Dig Everything’ it makes sense to bookend the album with this track - it’s also a fitting postscript to the TOY era”.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 7.5pt 0cm 0cm 0cm;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"margin: 7.5pt 0cm 0cm 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Helvetica',sans-serif; color: #333333;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-family: 'Helvetica',sans-serif; color: #333333;\"\u003eIncluded in TOY:BOX is a second CD\/set of 10”s of alternative mixes and versions including proposed B-Sides (versions of David’s debut single ‘Liza Jane’ and 1967’s ‘In The Heat Of The Morning’), later mixes by Tony Visconti and the ‘Tibet Version’ of ‘Silly Boy Blue’ recorded at The Looking Glass Studio time at the of the 2001 Tibet House show in New York featuring Philip Glass on piano and Moby on guitar.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 7.5pt 0cm 0cm 0cm;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"margin: 7.5pt 0cm 0cm 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Helvetica',sans-serif; color: #333333;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-family: 'Helvetica',sans-serif; color: #333333;\"\u003eThe third CD\/set of 10”s features 'Unplugged \u0026amp; Somewhat Slightly Electric’ mixes of thirteen TOY tracks. Producer Mark Plati \"While we were recording the basic tracks Earl Slick suggested that he and I overdub acoustic guitars on all the songs. He said this was a Keith Richards’ trick, sometimes these guitars would be a featured part of the track, and at other times they’d be more subliminal. Later while mixing, David heard one of the songs broken down to just vocals and acoustic guitars; this gave him the idea that we ought to do some stripped-down mixes like that and that maybe one day they'd be useful. Once we put a couple of other elements in the pot, it felt like it could be a completely different record. I was only too happy to finish that thought some two decades after the fact”.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 7.5pt 0cm 0cm 0cm;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"margin: 7.5pt 0cm 0cm 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Helvetica',sans-serif;
