This is a review for The Alan Parsons Project which I was sent to review. The thoughts in this review is mine and my families no, one else.
I always like sharing new performers with Charlie in our Music and Drama Class. As soon as I received the CD of The Alana Project and found out it had Eye In The Sky on it I sat down to listen.
Because I wanted to see what the song was about. As the song was playing Charlie and David walked into my office because they liked the beat in the song.
Before I knew it we had sat down and listened to the entire CD. Then Charlie and David began researching Alan Parsons to see what other songs he had out.
All of us enjoyed The Alan Parsons project so much that we can’t wait to look online and order other Albums not only for our Homeschool Library but our personal library as well.
The concept behind The Alan Parsons Project was related to belief systems, whether they be religious beliefs, political beliefs or belief in luck (as in gambling).
Generally the concept is related to the universal idea that there is someone looking down on us all. The expression is also used in military and surveillance contexts.

ALAN PARSONS is a Grammy Award winner who was born into a family with an impressive history in entertainment. His great-grandfather was the celebrated actor/manager Sir Herbert Beerbohm Tree.
His mother was an actress, professional folk singer and harpist and his father, Denys Parsons, an accomplished pianist and flautist as well as the author of many books. The late Oliver Reed, film actor was a cousin. His uncle, David Tree was also a film and stage actor.
Alan had dabbled with live performance in his late teens as a folk/blues acoustic player and as a lead guitarist with a blues band called The Earth in the late sixties in his hometown of London.
(Their only album, Elemental surfaced recently and was released by Record Collector Magazine in 2015.) But as soon as he landed a job at the famous Abbey Road Studios at the age of 19, it became clear that the world of sound recording was to dominate his career
