The Alan Parsons Project - A Dream Within A Dream Instrumental 0:00 2. On the album's 1987 remix, the instrumental Dream Within a Dream has Orson Welles narrating in front of this wispy collaboration of guitars and keyboards Welles also narrates Fall of the House of Usher: Prelude. The EMI vocoder is used throughout The Raven with the Westminster City School Boys Choir mixed in to add a distinct flair to its chamber-like sound. The Alan Parsons Project - The System Of Doctor Tarr And Professor Fether. The Alan Parsons Project - The Fall Of The House Of Usher. The Alan Parsons Project - Arrival. The Alan Parsons Project was a British rock group active from 1975 until 1990, founded by Alan Parsons and Eric Woolfson both from London, England. The group is based on a number of regular group members such as Stuart Elliot and Ian Bairnson, complemented with varying lead vocals such as Colin Blunstone the Zombies, Chris Rainbow and Gary Brooker Procol Harum. The group is well known for its concept albums, which cover themes such as Edgar Allan Poe, Gaudi, and Freud. Eric Woolfson wrote most of the music and lyrics while Alan Parsons overviewed the production process. Prior read more. Show all albums by The Alan Parsons Project. The Alan Parsons Project.

He regards Edgar Allan Poe as probably his greatest musical inspiration because not only were his works fascinating, his life was even more intriguing. Compared to Gaudi and Freud whose work enthralled Eric, but whose lives were mundane by comparison, he found Edgar Allan Poe doubly inspirational. If you can hear a very low rumble on the Tales of Mystery and Imagination album, it could be an Edgar Allan Poe effect, or more likely a London tube train After the album was completed and manufactured, Orson Welles made a recording which was used as part of the initial presentation of the album in Los Angeles.

The Alan Parsons Project's TALES OF MYSTERY AND IMAGINATION is one of the best horror-themed rock albums ever produced. TALES OF MYSTERY AND IMAGINATION was originally released in 1976 and was, to the dismay of some fans, re-released a few years later with different jacket illustrations. Though the remixed and remastered CD version reviewed here uses the original jacket art for the cover and liner illustrations, there are other aspects of the disc that will nonetheless upset fans who are purists. I love this album. All songs are based off edgar allan poe stories with narration from orson welles. Great songs and stories combined to make a great album
