Passion

Double half-speed mastered vinyl LP pressing. Includes digital download. "Passion - Music for The Last Temptation of Christ" was released a year after Martin Scorsese's controversial film first hit the big screen in 1988. "Passion" is often considered a standalone work rather than just a movie soundtrack. It features additional music not included in the film; this extra material resulted from Peter continuing to record and refine "unfinished ideas." Drawing on Middle Eastern and North African rhythms and melodies, "Passion" stands out as Peter's most spiritual work, especially evident when the voices of Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, Youssou N'Dour, and Peter himself blend harmoniously on the title track. In addition to Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan and Youssou N'Dour, the album boasts a lineup of notable guests including Senegalese griot Baaba Maal, jazz drummer Bill Cobham, and avant-garde trumpeter Jon Hassell, among others. The album has been half-speed remastered and cut to lacquers at 33RPM, spread across 2 heavyweight black vinyl LPs, ensuring maximum dynamic range in the sound. Vinyl cut by Matt Colton at Alchemy Mastering, and mastered by Tony Cousins at Metropolis. The album stays true to the original LP design with a wide-spine jacket and printed inner sleeves, now featuring color photographs from "The Last Temptation of Christ" film, all newly
