For the pilot episode, Hammond and Brian tackle the music of The Alan Parsons Project. From their humble and literary beginnings, through its dabbling with pop, and into the later years.
Soundography #0: The Alan Parsons Project
For the pilot episode, Hammond and Brian tackle the music of The Alan Parsons Project. From their humble and literary beginnings, through its dabbling with pop, and into the later years.
I’m having a lot of fun catching up with these episodes. I think I have most of the APP albums and a lot of Parsons and Woolfson solo, so if you don’t mind my posting my own top 5 (no particular order):
* Breakdown (from I Robot)
* Don’t Answer Me (from Ammonia Avenue)
* Don’t Let the Moment Pass (from Freudiana)
* Oh Life, There Must Be More (from Try Anything Once)
* The System of Doctor Tarr and Professor Fether (from Tales of Mystery and Imagination)
Apparently, Don’t Let The Moment Pass was a minor hit when covered by a Hong Kong pop singer named Regina Tsang, so check it out on YouTube or cue it up for Coverville, I guess? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1uSI9NMgogI
