Early Period

This period represents the early works of the Alan Parsons Project. Taking orchestral rock to new extremes of beauty and complexity, The Project (Alan Parsons + Eric Woolfson + great singers + orchestras) produced several remarkable "pop/rock" songs, as well as impressive albums, most of these songs can be found on The Definitive Collection.

Early albums

Tales of Mystery & Imagination · I Robot · Pyramid · Eve · The Turn Of A Friendly Card

Tales of Mystery & Imagination     (1976)

With the exception of "The Tell-Tale Heart," every single song on this cd is magnificent!

I Robot     (1977)

A thoroughly impressive compact disc from beginning to end! I especially enjoyed: "Some Other Time," "Breakdown," "Day After Day," "Don't Let It Show," "I Robot" and "Genesis Ch.1 V. 32!"

Pyramid     (1978)

I just received it! What is there to think about it? I sincerely believe that this recording is in all probability, The Alan Parsons Project's best studio album. Beginning with the instrumental "Voyager" through "Shadow Of A Lonely Man," this cd seems to be impressive throughout! Highlights, include: "Voyager," "What Goes Up...," "The Eagle Will Rise Again," "Can't Take It With You," "In The Lap Of The Gods," "Pyramania" and "Hyper-Gamma-Spaces." I will add more relevant information about this recording at a later date!

Eve     (1979)

This cd contains: "Lucifer," "Damned If I Do" and "If I Could Change Your Mind," which are all masterpieces! I will write a more complete review after I have listened to it about 6 times.

The Turn Of A Friendly Card     (1980)

Of the earlier albums, I am most familiar with The Turn Of A Friendly Card. Masterpieces on this cd, include: "The Turn Of A Friendly Card Parts I & II," "Time," "Games People Play," "The Gold Bug," "May Be A Price To Pay," "Ace Of Swords," "Snake Eyes" and "Nothing Left To Lose." Actually, the entire cd is fantastic, I can not think of any substandard songs!
