Liner Notes:

If producers are the superstars of the Nineties, then Alan Parsons can claim to have been amoung the first of the breed. Life 'fifth Beatle' George Martin, he used London's legendary Abbey Road studios as his launchpad, serving as assistant engineer on the Fab Four's final *bona fide* recording named after those very studios. He also engineered for Paul McCartney and Pink Floyd winning [ actually only nominated for - ed. ] a Grammy for 'Dark Side Of The Moon,' (still a definitive test recording for stereo sound systems - in the CD age) before graduating to produce Al Stewart, Cockney Rebel, Pilot and others in the early Seventies.

The decision to make music as opposed to producing others came after a meeting with one Eric Woolfson. 'Eric offered to manage me, and from a business arrangement it moved into a creative one'. Sharing a fascination for horror movies like *Jaws*, *Towering Inferno*, and *Earthquake*, the duo adopted the then- fashionable 'concept album' format as their vehicle; the first fruits, released in 1976 as 'Tales Of Mystery And Imagination,' are unavailable for this compilation but served very much as a blueprint for the albums that followed.
