Alan Parsons (born 20 December 1948[1]) is a British audio engineer, musician, and record producer. He was involved with the production of several significant albums, including The Beatles' Abbey Road and Let It Be, as well as Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon for which Pink Floyd credit him as an important contributor. Parsons' own group, The Alan Parsons Project, as well as his subsequent solo recordings, have also been successful commercially.
When I was out earlier I heard Games People Play on the play list at the bar ( see previous post). I was instantly taken back to my first introduction to Alan Parsons in the sounds of the I Robot album:
