EYE IN THE SKY

After Alan Parsons came out with their conceptual masterpieces: "iRobot" and "Tales of Mystery and Imagination-- Edgar Allen Poe", I got to say that I was a bit disappointed with "Eye in the Sky". Much like Genesis, I feel like Alan Parsons Project's music got worse as they shifted into the new, pop "electronic age" of the 80's. The album is by no means bad though, I just expected more out of the audio engineers of the greatest album of all time ("The Dark Side of the Moon"). The entire album didn't seem very planned out, almost like all of the tracks were just experimenting with individual themes and ideas; sometimes a little bit boring.
