    Sehr starke Scheibe. Schon der erste Song fesselt einem, einfach Weltklasse! Kleiner Tip, Konzert im Mai in Bern "Alan Parsons Live Project" ;-)

  • Das Meisterwerk

    Written on 21. August 2001 by Alex Burlet.
    This customer review refers to a alternative version.

    Der Einbezug von klassischen Bläsern mit dem einzigartigen Sound-/Effektmix machen diese CD zum unbestrittenen Meisterwerk. Der absolute Höhepunkt von AP. Eine CD der Superlative!
