Vulture Culture is the eighth studio album by the Alan Parsons Project, released in February 1985 via the Arista label. The first side of the LP consists entirely of four-minute pop songs, and the second side varies widely, from the subdued funk of the title track to the bouncing instrumental "Hawkeye". At the beginning of 1985, the lead single "Let's Talk About Me" reached the top 40 in Germany (where the album was No. 1), in Switzerland (where Vulture Culture was No. 2) and in the Netherlands. The song features voice-over commentary from Lee Abrams, credited on the album as "Mr. Laser Beam" (an anagram of his name). On the charts, Vulture Culture was a success in continental Europe, reaching the top 10 in many countries, and in Australia; whereas it was less successful in the US. It was the last album by the band to be certified Gold. The song "Hawkeye" is an instrumental but does contain a line from Monica, a woman working at the canteen in Abbey Road Studios (it occurs at 2:18). The line she says is: "Only what's on the menu". This is the only Project album that does not feature the orchestration of Andrew Powell. However, the album was the first to feature Richard Cottle, who played various synthesisers on the record, including the Fairlight CMI and the Yamaha DX7. Vulture Culture was the last Project album recorded on analogue equipment, and as with the previous two, mixed directly to the digital master tape. [Wikipedia]
