Turn Of A Friendly Card Alan Parsons Project Speakers Corner edition
Turn Of A Friendly Card
Alan Parsons Project
Although numerous doubts abounded that concept albums with thematic focus were not what people wanted to hear, Alan Parsons’ somewhat egomaniacal projects always found a broad public. Of course one can listen to the perfectly styled sound of the music which this man created at the mixing console and concentrate on its programmatic contents or wallow in its esoteric tonal depths. But you don’t have to, for Parsons’ velvety mixture of ballads and rock numbers will get your ear’s nerve ends tingling without lyrics and themes.
The album "The Turn Of A Friendly Card" includes two of Parsons’ very best songs: "Time", with its beautiful harmonies, and the gently swinging "Games People Play" which opens with Empire fanfares. That the instrumental tracks find favour with almost all rock fans is hardly surprising because the music more often than not emulates the driving sound of Brit Rock rather than bombastic “sonic soufflés” (Rolling Stone).
But be that as it may, the title certainly holds its promise. The sales figures for this album clearly show that this ‘friendly card’ has definitely turned up trumps for Alan Parsons. Andrew Powell (arr, cond); Alan Parsons, Eric Woolfson (keyb, voc); Ian Bairnson (g); David Paton (b); Stuart Elliot (dr, perc); and the Orchestra of the Munich Chamber Opera Care conducted by Sandor Farcas Recording: 1979 by Alan Parsons Production: Alan Parsons and Eric Woolfson
This Speakers Corner LP was remastered using pure analogue components only, from the master tapes through to the cutting head. More information under www.pure-analogue.com. All royalties and mechanical rights have been paid. We recommend the use of "L'Art du Son" LP cleaner to wet wash your vinyl. Even new records of high quality production will benefit from this.
