Based in Shepherds Bush, West London, The Passions’ music was grounded mainly in Barbara Gogan’s voice, and Clive Timperley’s delicate echoplex guitar work. Before forming in 1978, most of the members had spent time in other groups.[1] Timperley was an ex-101ers, whilst drummer Richard Williams and singer/guitarist Barbara Gogan were in the punk rock outfit, The Derelicts. [1] The Passions’ first single, issued in March 1979, was “Needles and Pills”, which helped them gain a recording contract with Fiction Records, home of The Cure.[1] The Passions were predominantly a guitar band but they fitted in with the spirit of the times, being part New Romantics, and part “European grey”.
A year passed between the release of the “Needles and Pills” single, and Michael and Miranda, the band’s first album.[1] Singles “Hunted”, and “Swimmer” followed, and then their major charting song, “I’m in Love with a German Film Star”.[1] Before “The Swimmer Bidwell and Barker left the band, the former to join The Wall. David Agar took over on bass guitar.[1] The band’s second album, 30,000 Feet Over China, was released in August 1981. It included previously released A-sides and several brand new recordings.
Clive Timperley left the band in Verona in December 1981, during the Italian leg of their prophetically named “Tour Till We Crack” tour, as a result of “serious political differences”.
