Passion Play, Songs of Spirit, Love, and Outrage, delivers a rich, expansive mix of Springsteen-esque rock anthems, introspective pieces reminiscent of the deeper work of Peter Gabriel, and loony-tune Police-meets-Spike-Jones satire, with a fiery honesty and a full-on band…and once again, George has performed virtually all the parts himself. What unifies this album, with its calculated flow of tender love songs, aching search for meaning, interlude, and blistering satire? It’s the passion, the love for another, the quest for that which is higher, and the fiery wish for a better world. These emotions play upon the landscape, like fierce sunlight ever burning through storm clouds: Passion Play.
