Review by Warthur
PROG REVIEWER
4 stars A no-fuss boxed set of the full run of Alan Parsons Project albums. Note that it is just that, no more - no Alan Parsons Live Project, no Alan Parsons solo, no Eric Woolfson solo, and in particular no Freudiana, an album which began as a Project album but was eventually released under the "Freudiana" name because of creative differences between Parsons and Woolfson.

It's a compact, affordable way to get the complete run of releases from the band, all sounding delightful. Why only four stars, then? Well, it's largely because the Project was very much a four-star band at best. They produced some good albums, they produced some which were only lukewarm, but to my ears at least they never produced an album which was truly great; four stars was very much their ceiling.

At the same time, because of the modest pricing of this CD set it's prompted me to finally sit down and listen to some Project albums I never previously got around to - all of which have their finer moments here and there - which I might not otherwise have done. So if you want a one-purchase-and-done APP collection, this is what you want.
