Re: The Alan Parsons Project
pyramid was just OK. pyramania is a crap song and the instrumentals are pointless
^^I like Pyramid...
Considering Alan Parsons worked with Pink Floyd among other luminaries it's just possible that they sound like his band...

Re: The Alan Parsons Project
^^Sorry you feel that way, every Parsons album I own has one instrumental...and I would miss it if they weren't there.
Pointless....millions of fans disagree with your condemnation and when I stop to think about it, bands like the Alan Parsons Project are by far in the minority when it comes to rock music. I enjoy the lush textures, the classical instrumentation, the fabulous production quality, the stellar guest musicians and the whole finished product that we end up with.

Re: The Alan Parsons Project
I had to register on this forum just to comment on this awesome band.
APP have so many great songs, it's hard to choose a favorite, or even a favorite album. If pressed, I might have to go with "I Robot" because of how strong most of the songs are.
I Robot
I Wouldn't Want To Be Like You
Some Other Time
Breakdown
Don't Let It Show
All of these are solid songs with "Some Other Time" probably being the best...or at least my favorite.
My favorite songs from APP keep changing throughout the years but usually include:
Shadow Of A Lonely Man
Time
Old And Wise
Limelight
Games People Play
Some Other Time
To One In Paradise
Since The Last Goodbye
I don't recall anyone mentioning Vulture Culture so I'll leave you with my favorite song off that album.

Re: The Alan Parsons Project
I have just discovered a fantastic instrumental piano tune called Elsie's Theme form the lost Sicilian Defence recordings. I am totally blown away by this wonderful piece of music and i can't understand why Alan don't want to release it!

Re: The Alan Parsons Project
It could be that he was still feuding with Eric Woolfson Mick, they had a parting of ways years ago and there are probably a few great pieces of music in the vaults waiting for the finishing touch.
Perhaps now that Eric has passed away and they patched things up before he died Alan will dust off the archives and put together some good material they kept back and release it as a tribute to Eric, that would be a nice gesture.

Re: The Alan Parsons Project
Oh, i am sorry to hear about the feud...i never knew they had one. Was this feud about Eric wanting to go "Musical" and Alan more towards " Ambient" maybe?
Anyway, thanx for the anwer and lets hope Alan will take the forgotten tapes and do something great with them.

I liked some songs by APP. Games People Play was one of my favorites.
