In my opinion, this is not one of the best Alan Parsons Projects outings. In fact, it is my least favorite. But I do love this pressing. It is very well done, one of the quietest LPs I own. It is very dynamic and has fantastic sound across the board. Production and mixing are exquisite, as you would expect from Mr. Parsons.
Instrumentation is great and the more I listen to it, it sinks in more, it just doesn't have the strong set of catchy songs most APP albums have. Soundwise, it is gorgeous - deep blacks, crystalline guitars and cymbals, thick bass, great vocals...just a wonderful recording.
