| The Alan Parsons Project - I, Robot
|
|
| 
 
|
| | Product Details | With its title originating from an Isaac Asimov novel, I Robot's main
concept is one that deals heavily in the field of science fiction. The
album's idea is based around Parsons' concern with the onslaught of
machinery and its inevitable takeover of man, both in a physical sense
and a spiritual one. As one of the Alan Parsons Project's strongest
efforts, its wise blend of keyboard-dominated instrumentals partnered
with the warmth of the vocals during the lyrical songs emblazons the
man-vs.-machine idea. The mechanical-sounding title track is the
opening song, setting the tone for the album's futuristic motif. Man's
regret for his mechanical creations sweeps through "I Wouldn't Want to
Be Like You," with a passionate Lenny Zakatek singing lead. The human
being's rebellious nature is the theme behind "Breakdown," sung by
ex-Hollies member Allan Clarke, while the strength of the human will is
the focal point of "Don't Let It Show," a heartening ballad performed
by Dave Townsend. Ending with the instrumental "Genesis Ch. 1 V. 32,"
the promising tempo and air of this song invoke hope for all mankind.
As a final product, I Robot leaves the listener with much to
contemplate, which is its purpose, but also presents a collage of
well-crafted songs that aren't easily forgotten. This album still
remains one of this band's most accomplished pieces. Mike DeGagne The
transfer was the first ever from the original flat master tapes
provided by Alan "The Boss" Parsons himself and adds significantly to
the inner detail, texture and dimensionality of this groundbreaking
album.
