Steven Wilson - The Raven That Refused to Sing (And Other Stories) (2013) [24-96]

The Raven That Refused to Sing (And Other Stories) is the third solo album by British musician Steven Wilson, released by Kscope Music Records on 25 February 2013. Each track on the album is based on a story of the supernatural. Alan Parsons, who had previously been involved in the creation of Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon was responsible for engineering the album.

The Alan Parsons Project – Eye in the Sky [35th Anniversary Collector’s Edition, 3 CD, 2017/FLAC]

Eye in the Sky provided the Alan Parsons Project with their first Top Ten hit since 1977’s I Robot, and it’s hard not to feel that crossover success was one of the driving forces behind this album.

Al Stewart - Year Of The Cat (45th Anniversary Deluxe Edition, 3 CD 2021/FLAC)

 

Al Stewart’s 1976 album, Year of the Cat, has received a 45th Anniversary release. The expanded 3-CD/1-DVD boxed set has been newly re-mastered for the first time from the original first-generation master tapes by Alan Parsons. It also features Parsons’ new 5.1 Surround sound mix from the original multi-track tapes. In addition, the set includes a complete, previously unreleased concert recorded at the Paramount Theater, in Seattle, Wash., in October 1976 on Stewart’s Year of the Cat tour.

Recorded in the early months of 1976 at Abbey Road studios (with some sessions and mixing taking place at Davlen Studios in Los Angeles), Year of the Cat was Stewart’s seventh album and the second on which he collaborated with Parsons as producer.
