TUESDAY TUNES – THE ALAN PARSONS PROJECT

Submitted by Suds

The dude looks like Wolfman Jack, LOL, but, I think Alan Parsons is underrated.
The guy produced Dark Side of the Moon, and Abbey Road albums, and
The Project has these eight songs that I think are worthy tunes from our generational era.

The passage of time diminishes some truly awesome accomplishments, like music and muscle cars…

Got the wife to help her students study Edgar Poe by making them listen to this:

Still my fav and I still have the original LP

I love Alan Parsons, so have one correction to make: he produced neither album mentioned above, he instead was the sound engineer (Abbey Road was his first credit, actually).

This is my favorite APP song:

I stand corrected, and will therefore drink a beer in humble appreciation.

I played an original song for Alan once. I was at a record release party in Hollywood and a friend of mine whose album he produced liked my song and pulled Alan over to the grand piano and told me to play it. I was barely aware of his history and it’s just a blur.

I think I have all, or nearly all, his albums? Might have missed one or two – but this one does it for me: the curse of compulsive gambling made melodic –

Alan Parsons
The Moody Blues
Jeff Wayne’s “War of the Worlds”

Does anybody really need anything more for their musical entertainment?

Edit: Listening to “Tales of Mystery and Imagination (Edgar Allan Poe)” as posted by Georges S, and hearing Orson Welles’ distinctive narration, I was instantly reminded of Jeff Wayne’s awesome original production as heard on the double LP masterpiece CBS records released in 1978. Justin Hayward, of the Moody Blues, has filled the shoes of Richard Burton’s journalist role in that production in its present incarnation.
