"Ain't that right. It's better than listening to this Alan Parson's Pussy. Ya can't take it with ya, now that's a good song. Which reminds me, its time I went to the Luxor".

My 2nd favorite Parsons album, edged out by the masterpiece Pyramid.
More fun trivia: The "Turn" cover was designed by Godley and Crème. Was there anything those guys couldn't do?
I love it: it's full of great tunes!
This was a good solid effort by the band and the recording of course was top notch.
I dont have an issue with any of the APP releases and I can find plenty to like with just about every album.
Funny thing is the way he records his own music they kinda remind me (especially this one) as a lighter version of pink floyd in the same recording style and flow like the way he recorded dark side of the moon.....
Anyone else agree ?
If I could imagine a Parsons production analog against DSOTM it would be Pyramid, which is almost as essentially flawless.
After Tales and I Robot I stopped buying Parsons-LP's for a while. But Pyramid made me listen to the project again and the final LP I bought was Friendly Card.
Now I bought the new 2-disc version and I enjoy listening to it again. And between the new bonus-stuff there are two fine pieces with great unused/extended guitar-solo's: May Be A Price To Pay and The Turn Of a Friendly Cart Part Two.
