The 1984 Listening Post - The Alan Parsons Project - Ammonia Avenue

The Alan Parsons Project - Ammonia Avenue


#26
February 7 1984
The Alan Parsons Project
Ammonia Avenue

Highlights: 
Don’t Answer Me

After 3 mildly interesting albums in a row….Is it just me or does “Prime Time” sound JUST like “Eye in the Sky”? Alan Parsons might be a great engineer but his is the music of dullards. 
No, Alan, you don’t get points for biting on Phil Spector-doing Moody Blues for “Don’t Answer Me”. I don’t care that it was a hit. I don’t care!
Ok. It’s not bad. 

If The Alan Parsons Project is your favorite band…insert epithets. 

Sorry, 1984 is really getting to me. Gawd…this year is awful.
