    Standing At The Gates Of Paradise
  

*by A***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 12, 2012*

By the time this came out the 70's was coming to an end. As far as Passport were concerned the only member this had in common with the other lineups was ground founder Doldinger himself. The rest of the classic lineup had gradually shed members over the course of the previous two albums. This addition of Passport tended much more toward the progressive fusion side of the bands nature than anything as dance oriented as before. Of course this also meant they were more experimental and bound to do the unexpected. They even found their first vocalist in guitar player Kevin Mulligan. So here they went for their most overtly conceptual album. What the concept defines itself as is something of a mystery.  With witty cover art possibly depicting  a satire of creationism,a celebration of Darwinism  or possible a little of each this album begins with an instrumental suite starting with the cinematic disco styled "Big Bang" through the gentle title song up through the heavier prog rock styled "Light II". From there it's onto "Snake",a somewhat jazzier song for this album. "Gates Of Paradise" features Mulligan singing on a flamboyantly melodic combination of dance/soul and gospel music,complete with female vocal chorus. "Dreamware" also returns to that dance flavor with a slick,hook filled arrangement. It's one of my favorites here along with "Children's Dance",another funk number with a heavy swinging flavor to it too.  Mulligans other vocal number in the almost country-western styled "Good Earth Smile" isn't bad but isn't a favorite of mine personally. Does'nt mesh well stylistically with this sort of album mainly.  Granted this particular lineup of Passport were'nt quite as individual as the earlier lineup in terms of innovative instrumentation. In fact,sometimes the band didn't seem to know what direction to take itself. But they still had this certain sound that no one else really has. Doubt this will go down as Passport's most powerful statement because one or two of the songs are out of place. On the other hand it's home to a handfull of some of their best music and really not a bad way to close out their first decade.

    Not Quite
  

*by T***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 12, 2012*

I always thought Passport was one album away to being a classic fusion group. With great musicians like Curt Cress and Kristian Schultze, a little more work from such titles as Infinity Machine and Cross Collateral could have given Passport a name right up with other fusion bands such as Weather Report, and given the Germans their own voice in this genre.Instead there was a measure of frustration as Doldinger changed lineups and directions with each album.  I always kept buying their albums hoping for the slam dunk I was sure was going to happen.Garden of Eden is the last Passport Album I liked. I say that because I've never heard an album after that where I've liked so many songs. In the others I could only find one, maybe two numbers at the most that I liked.Yes it didn't help that the music changed, the 80s came in and fusion became more formula. I saw that as a perfect chance for Passport to better itself and put out some hot releases while everybody else was doing mediocre - instead Passport fell in line and released yawners along with everybody else.It helped that Yawners were in.Garden of Eden was their last good album. In the vinyl version side 1 is the theme of a mixture of scientific and biblical creation with Big Bang,  The Garden of Eden trilogy, and Snake. Passport paints a non stop wonderful picture of the creation of the Universe, The coming of Adam, then Eve and then their antagonist, the Snake. Of those Snake is the most outstanding piece, the haunting bass line, the steady walking drum, the rattle of the Snake's tail, the bells, and the electronic Choral background  layered over Doldinger's soulful sax solos.Then I found the other side and the remaining songs a let down, I mean you just created a perfect visualization of creation, paradise and paradise lost. Where do you go from up? The remaining songs can't maintain the energy.  This is why I title it "Not Quite"  It's not quite the great Passport album it should have been.

I am a fan. So far, there is not a single Passport album I have not enjoyed. I hope you will, too.
