In 1982 The Alan Parsons Project abandoned the concept of progressive pop albums to enter a more commercial pop rock, without losing a bit of quality and certain doses of the progressive style of yesteryear.
However, the concept was still presented in some way, since the first and worldwide successful song "Eye In The Sky" is based on the work of George Orwell, the voice of David Patton that stands out in pop-rock is also available "Children Of The Moon", the instrumental with a certain Pink Floyd aftertaste "Mammagamma", the hypnotic "Sirius" or the wonderful ballad "Old And Wise".
"Eye In The Sky" would become The Alan Parsons Project's biggest commercial success, with over two million records sold, as well as being nominated for a Grammy Award the following year.
