'' is the fifth studio album from
Dance Music band
Dead Or Alive in 1990. Their prior album ''
Nude '' was a commercial and critical disappointment, except for in
Japan . Thusly,
Epic Records released ''Fan the Flame (Part 1)'' in Japan only. To this day it is still available only as a Japanese import.
The album contains a slight change in musical style for Dead or Alive, best known for
Hi-NRG and
Disco songs. ''Fan the Flame (Part 1)'' contains more mid-tempo songs and melancholy lyrical content. The male background vocals on this album were performed by British pop band
Londonbeat .
The songs "Unhappy Birthday" and "Gone 2 Long" were later re-recorded as uptempo dance tracks for Dead or Alive's next album ''
Nukleopatra ''.
All songs written by Dead or Alive.

#"Unhappy Birthday"
