(Review from allmusic.com, wikipedia) In 1984, Andrew Powell composed the music for the film “Ladyhawke”. He was most well known for his work with the Alan Parsons Project. The film director Richard Donner stated in the liner notes that he had been location-scouting with a steady soundtrack of the Project’s albums, and so he married

(Review from progarchives.com) This is really the Eric Woolfson Project, Parsons being almost entirely absent from the album credits. He is listed as co-writer of the songs, but this could be very much in the way Lennon/McCartney shared every song. This album is the nearest to progressive Alan Parsons Project have come since “Tales of

(Review from wikipedia, allmusic, progarchives.com) The word ‘Stereotomy’ is taken from the writings of Edgar Allan Poe. It refers to the cutting of existing solid shapes into different forms; it is used as a metaphor for the way that famous people (singers, actors. etc.) are often ‘shaped’ by the demands of fame. On this album,

(Review from allmusic, wikipedia, progarchives.com) One of the most interesting aspects about the Alan Parsons Project is the band’s ability to forge a main theme with each of its songs, while at the same time sounding extremely sharp and polished. Much of this formula is used in Ammonia Avenue, only this time the songs rise

(Review from progarchives.com, wikipedia, allmusic.com) Project’s fifth album “Turn of a Friendly Card” focuses on gambling, and loosely tells the tale of a middle-aged man who grows restless and takes a chance by going to a casino and betting all he has, only to lose it all. This time the album doesn’t lead off with

(Review from progarchives.com) “Eve” is a pretty good outing for the prolific Alan Parsons Project, with a good selection of guests, and some nice instrumental work. This is the only Project album to feature female lead vocalists. The usual melodic pop prog is here, with strong melodies and fine performances. The Moody Blues, Barclay James

(Review from progarchives.com) Alan Parsons Project’s third album references to pyramid power and ancient Egypt surface repeatedly, the album is called “a view of yesterday through the eyes of today”. The theme of rise and fall is prominent throughout. One of the highlights in Alan Parsons Project’s career, ‘Pyramid’ establishes a fusion of both their

(Review from seaoftranquility.org) Once you hear the familar sounds of Alan Parsons’ fairlight and layered synths from Eric Woolfson & Haydn Bendall on the opening “Sirius”, a classic Alan Parsons Project instrumental piece that became a familiar theme to many sporting events, so begins the popular 1982 release Eye In the Sky.
