The Alan Parsons Project - Prime Time

Review by Raymond O. Savadogo

The Alan Parsons Project's album Prime Time is a masterpiece of progressive rock. Released in 1984, the album showcases the band's unique style of combining rock music with electronic and orchestral elements. The album features some of the band's most popular songs, including "Let's Talk About Me" and "Don't Let It Show."

The album opens with the upbeat and catchy "Prime Time," which sets the tone for the rest of the album. The song features a driving bass line and catchy melody, with lead vocals by Eric Woolfson. The album then moves on to the more contemplative "Let Me Go Home," which features a haunting melody and beautiful orchestration.

Other standout tracks on the album include "Separate Lives," a powerful ballad sung by Eric Woolfson and Lenny Zakatek, and "Let's Talk About Me," a fun and upbeat song with a catchy chorus. The album also features some instrumental tracks, such as "Hawkeye" and "Dora," which showcase the band's talent for creating intricate and complex music.

I used to play this on my trumpet in my room instead of practicing the sheet music. I was a year behind (did the bone first year and switched) but sat first chair by mid-year. So many TAPP songs I used to play along with. Probably sounded terrible but I played anyway.

Was nach den Beatles an unfassbaren Klangwelten herrauskam war überwältigend.
Die 75-85 Zeit war auch meine Zeit,ich bin glücklich das ich die 1:100000000
Möglichkeit hatte,diese Zeit mitzuerleben

Sólo es una pequeña(magnífica ésta,en particular)muestra de las grandes obras musicales que se realizaron en aquella época maravillosa de los 80's del siglo pasado...; la esencia que dejaba el final de la década de los 70's y se empalmaba perfectamente con el inicio de la siguiente década...,ésa transición..., ése estilo vivencial...urbano..
. callejero...de la urbe estadounidense y de otras urbes del mundo,en aquellos primeros años de los 80's ...,se plasmaron creativa y fielmente en ésta fantástica y mágica melodía envolvente de Alan Parsons Project. Una auténtica canción de culto para mí.

I had never seen this video.... I never saw many at the time, but I remember one for another instrumental, which is quite surprising, Mammagamma. The Gold Bug was something i really liked on The Turn of A Friendly Card, and still now, a fairly intriguing and pleasant instrumental piece. Nice to see some keyboards used on this track. the keyboard part was not so obvious in the end, unlike what I seemed to hear.
