Biography

Edit

British prog-rock group Alan Parsons Project formed in London in the mid 70's by Englishman Alan Parsons and Scotsman Eric Woolfson. As the Alan Parsons Project they released their first album in 1976, Tales of Mystery and Imagination and although its experimental sound kept it from lighting up the charts, critically it was generally well received. No doubt Alan Parsons Project are best known for their sixth album Eye in the Sky (1982), which produced their most well known hit "Eye in the Sky" as well as the instrumental "Sirius". In addition to album work the pair wrote and produced many film scores, most notably for Ladyhawke (1985).
