I've ressurected this post from an older version of the red lines forum, as it's one of the best bootlegs i've ever found and needs to be shared.
If you haven't got it then purchase the original Passion album now! -> womadshop.com/index.lasso?geo=GB&id=rwcdr1
This was the first album I bought when i left home for Music College and needeed somethign to spunk my first grant cheque on. Already a massive PG fan I still made the purchase wirth some trepedation, unaware of the treasures within. Being the first album on the then fledgling Real World label it opened my ears to whole new world of music - I had already heard Nusrat but this sounded so new and amazing. Original commisioned to write the music for The Last Temptation of Christ, a misunderstood cult classic from Scorsese, PG expanded on the original work to make this stand alone record.
Shortly afterwards I got hold of the Sources CD as well, i suggest you trek deeper and do the same -> womadshop.com/index.lasso?geo=GB&id=cdrw02
Now on to the goodies
Here is an hour long collection of sessions made in 1988 and 1989 that never made it to the soundtrack of The Last Temptation of Christ in excellent quality albeit with some hiss in the quieter passages. -> www.bigozine2.com/archive/ARrarities/ARpgpassion.html
And here's a nice bonus track I came across recently:
Peter Gabriel - A Different Drum (African Shuffle) (WOMAD 1988 with Youssou N'Dour) -> www.megaupload.com/?d=YLNJDS14
