Rod Stewart – Passion (US 12″ Promo)

BURNING THE GROUND EXCLUSIVE 1980

Side A

DISCO FRIDAY!

Re-Rip Newly Remastered!

Originally I posted this one on January 11, 2011. But for those who may have missed it or if you are a new reader just discovering BTG. I decided to give this one a new rip with my newer Ortofon Super 30 stylus. This 12″ is also being posted in 24 bit flac for the very first time!

“Passion” was the first single released in 1980 from Rod Stewarts tenth solo studio album ‘Foolish Behaviour”. The single peaked at #17 in the UK while reaching the #5 position on the US Billnoard Hot 100 in November 1980.
