Esoteric Recordings is proud to announce the release of a new remastered and expanded two CD edition of ‘Time Passages’, the legendary album by Al Stewart first released in September 1978.

Stewart’s third album recorded with Alan Parsons, ‘Time Passages’ followed the hugely successful platinum-selling ‘Year Of The Cat’. Recorded at the close of 1977 and during the early months of 1978 at Davlen Studios in Los Angeles, ‘Time Passages’ was an album of as much immense musical inventiveness.

Despite pressure to produce an equally successful follow-up record, Al Stewart rose to the occasion with ‘Time Passages’, an album that was as musically inventive and creative as its predecessor, a triumph both in terms of Al Stewart’s song writing and the stunning and sophisticated production by Alan Parsons.

Featuring such classic songs as ‘Valentina Way’, ‘Life In Dark Water’, ‘The Palace Of Versailles’, ‘Timeless Skies’, ‘Almost Lucy’ and the classic title track, ‘Time Passages’ was another commercial and critical success on its release, reaching the US Billboard Top Ten and the UK Top 40. The single ‘Time Passages’ was also a Top Ten hit in the United States.
