Forgotten Hard Rock Albums - Dirty Blonde - "Passion" (1989)

[AlphaMale]

Another of my blind cassette purchases back in 1989. Never heard of 'em but they looked cool and the song titles were good so I took a chance. "Passion" is everything you could love about glammy hard rock from the 80's. Memorable choruses and excellent musicianship, this album includes one of my all time favorite songs "Passion". 

If you've never heard this band, buy it now! It even got a fresh remaster on Demon Doll a few years ago.

One of the best forgotten albums from 1989. 

2 of my favorites...... the only 2 songs on YouTube: (edit: I uploaded and added a few more tracks)

Yeah pretty good disc...

how is the Demon Doll remaster sounding? their remaster of Blonz & Lixx Array didn't sound really any different to me...well not enough that I noticed.

Same as those 2. Not much of a noticeable difference. I will say it's a bit more punchy.

Interstin'...don't think it did...If I remember from around that time suncity released quite a few albums from the likes of Dirty Rhythm, Big Guns . Johnny Crash & Slash Puppet...but don't remember this seeing the light of day...maybe someone has more info,I know that suncity still sell disc through an ebay seller but the same stuff as before and very expensive.

Yeah its not bad...but there were just too many bands like this out there back then...I always thought 'Restless .Young and Wild' kinda sounded like their version of 'Modern Day Cowboy'.

Another disc in this series AM is doing that I have and think is good...

Thinking the ones that say unreleased are possibly from 2nd album.
