In 1979, I first heard I Robot. That album (at its time was way ahead of itself). I guess you could say it was new electronic. All of APP and AP albums have helped me through hard times in my life. It seemed as though when I was growing Alan Parsons was growing. I have read all of the above rates and I have to say that I am disapointed. I guess I am too old now. If I was young and going to Rave's, then this music might come close to something I was looking for. I get the feeling that Alan's son had a lot to do with this CD. I will buy the next AP CD. However, I am 43 now and my party days are over. I guess Alan needs to key into the new younger crowd. I am saddened by this CD. Too electronic/techno for me....
