To One In Paradise

Ethereal and beautiful - A reminder of love lost and briefly regained in dreams. Representative of an album that anticipated "Gothic" music by years. BJ Mitchell

Pipeline

If I had my own theme music to my life, "Pipeline" would be my theme song. It's so simple, yet paradoxically has so many layers. And the saxophone by Mel Collins is fantastic; I was sorry when he left the band. "Pipeline" is not only my favourite musical track by The Alan Parsons Project. "Pipeline" is my all-time favourite piece of music by ANYONE. It must be included in this new compilation. Jonathan Tad Ketchen

Closer To Heaven

...is my favorite track because of the mood it creates - for me it's a song about trust, hope, and a better tomorrow. Ken Jonach

Life is GOOD...

Through the percussive heartbeat of main theme to the amazing anguished vocals of Arthur Brown, this treatment of Poe's classic story conveys all the guilt and terror of the tortured soul facing his morbid accuser. Our Halloween favourite. P S Seashore
