Description
The long awaited reissue of the debut album by post-punk band The Passions, 35 years after its original release.
This special edition includes the 12 original album titles plus three related bonus tracks and appears on CD for the first time.
The bonus tracks on this CD include the band's only Fiction single 'Hunted' and the band's first single 'Needles & Pills' / 'Body & Soul' on Soho Records. The master tapes of this independent single are long since lost, so we have used a vinyl restoration specialist to provide these two tracks.
The album was produced by label boss Chris Parry, whose credits include The Jam, The Cure and The Associates amongst others.
All the tracks have been sourced from the original production master tapes except tracks 14 and 15, as stated above.
The CD booklet features the original album flip-side front cover (white front or black front cover), lyrics, plus detailed diary entries, The Passions First Album - a diary by Clive Timperley - from the related period of 1979 - 1980. There is also a UK discography.
