Thanks Marie ! I don't know what made me think of that song..I guess some dormant brain cells woke up. It's as good as I remembered though.

I love the Passions, and courtesy of Grunch, I now have all three albums, plus some extras.

Good Stuff.

I only have a bad ripped copy of the Sanctuary album and the track, "I'm in love with a German Film Star". I know there is a greatest hits cd but I have never seen it.


[Do you know of any other of their cd`s that Sanctuary might be on?]

As an appetizer, here is German Film Star, covered by the Foo Fighters:

Anything for you, Marie. [8D]

The Passions released 3 albums:
Michael and Miranda (1980)
30,000 Feet Over China (1981)
Sanctuary (1982)

and a hits compilation:
Passion Plays (1985)

I've never been able to get my hands on a track listing for Passion Plays, but I've never tried very hard since I have all the albums.

And strangely, 30kFOC is the only album to be released on CD.

Thanks for the info. It's a shame that the Passion Plays is so hard to come by. [:(]

Barbara Gogan, the lead singer, sells a Passions greatest hits CD on her website at
http://www.lulumusic.com. It is recorded from vinyl and has some crackles, though.
