CD Reviews

.....Love songs?
Fred E Conner | 04/09/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Maybe I misinterpret the definition of a "love song," but I know all those tracks, and none of them seem too much like love songs. I will say though that they are mostly slow, almost melancholy songs at times, and they rock my socks off. The Alan Parsons Project is one of the best available bands."
Nice...but you lose the concept album idea with this kind of
Alan Holyoak | In the shadow of the Tetons | 11/07/2006

"I have been an Alan Parsons Project (APP) fan for nearly 30 years, and I think that this collection represents many of the best mellow "love" songs produced by APP. So, if what you are looking for are some nice relaxing songs, then buy this collection, I believe you'll enjoy it.



At the same time, however, if you buy only APP collections like this one, or the APP all time best instrumentals, etc., you will miss out on the overall strength of APP music - the concept album.



FYI - Most APP albums are concept albums based on a central theme. E.g., Tales of Mystery and Imagination (the works of Edgar Allen Poe), I Robot (works of Asimov), Turn of a Friendly Card (Gambling), Pyramid (New age view of Egyptology), Faces of Eve (Men and Women), On Air (Flight), and so on...



If you do buy this album and enjoy this flavor of music I encourage you to try some of the other APP albums. If you like this kind of music, some APP albums you may particularly enjoy include the following: Turn of a Friendly Card, Vulture Culture, Eye in the Sky, and Ammonia Avenue.



So, that's it...5 stars for great music, minus on star for the loss of the concept album you'd get otherwise."
Parsons collection musical poetry
Fred E Conner | Auburn, WA USA | 07/18/2003
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I have bought most of these songs separately, and always back up and play them over at least once, singing along with a catch in my throat and tears in my eyes. These beautifully orchestrated lyrics are pure poetry and make the heart ache with the raw emotions they evoke. They are timeless and still affect me deeply after 20 years of hearing them. You can't go wrong with this or most of the other works of Alan Parsons."
