Album Description
Available in:
«Stereotomy» is the ninth album of "The Alan Parsons Project". It was published in 1985 by Arista Records. The album is structured in a somewhat atypical way with respect to its predecessors, departing considerably from the neat formula that the group had followed since its inception. The vocal participation of Eric Woolfson is almost nil (except for the choruses in the homonymous song that opens the LP) being replaced by the singer and musical director John Miles, who provides a good part of the voices instead of Woolfson. «Stereotomy» marks one of the lowest commercial moments in the group's career although the musical and compositional quality is considered superior to Vulture Culture. On the other hand this album continues on the path pop rock and adult contemporary of previous works. The Royal Spanish Academy defines the word stereotomy as the "art of cutting stones and wood." In the case of "Stereotomy" the word is a metaphor to refer to the way in which certain artists, media figures and famous people are, precisely, molded and redesigned to meet the requirements of popularity. "Stereotomy" was recorded entirely digitally at London's Mayfair Studios and, although the album received disappointing sales, it was nominated for the 1987 Grammy Awards in the section "best rock instrumental" for the song Where's the Walrus ?. "Stereotomy" was David Paton's last appearance on bass because he decided to join Elton John's support band at his concerts.
