Sony’s Legacy Recordings will later this year reissue a 35th Anniversary Collector’s Edition of The Alan Parsons Project‘s 1982 album Eye in the Sky.
This new celebratory box set of The Alan Parsons Project’s sixth studio album will feature in total three CDs of audio, two vinyl LPs (half-speed mastered and cut at 45RPM), a 5.1 Surround Mix on blu-ray audio (only with a hi-res stereo version of the original mix) a flexi-disc, a 60-page Book, and a 1982 replica poster.
One of the highlights for fans is sure to be CD 2 which presents Eric Woolfson’s never before released ‘songwriting diaries’. Eric’s daughter, Sally Woolfson, says “The songwriting diary disc is a very special element of this package. This shows Eric’s private moments of creativity captured on tape as songwriting memos to himself. As he didn’t read or write annotated music, this was how he developed the songs he wrote. They give a wonderful fly on the wall insight into the creative process where you can literally hear the song evolve as the ideas come out of his head. These are very precious to the family and it was extremely difficult to pick out the tracks to include in this box set from the hours and hours of material we had for this album alone. We’ve tried to illustrate the creative progression where a number of tracks for the same song have been included. We hope the fans will enjoy this rare insight into the birth of the songs from the ‘Eye in the Sky’ album.”
In addition to all that CD 3 offers a further 15 previously unreleased outtakes, demos and rough mixes along with some rare single edits.
Alan Parsons himself says “audiophiles will be pleased to know that there is a brand new 5.1 Surround Sound mix, which I am extremely pleased with incidentally, and also a Hi Def stereo version taken from the original analog stereo master tape which was recorded simultaneously alongside the digital mix”.
