The Alan Parsons Project - Stereotomy - 5Difficult one this. While I didn't have quite the same reaction as OnlyShallow, you can't help but feel that this is horribly dated. Of course, that's just the nature of 80's music, it hasn't aged as well as, say, 60's stuff. That been said, there were a couple of moments (notably on the funkadelic 'Beaujolais') where I really thought I might get into this. Then along comes a synthesizer instrumental or a horrible ballady thing (Limelight) and makes me hate it again. If I'd got into this when it was released I might be a bit more forgiving about the 80's stylings, but as it is I can't give it any more than a 5. Sorry.

Just out of interest Jay, did you get into these recently, or are you an old man who bought it in the 80's?
