It's like learning religion directly from god. Thanks so much for this.

Allen Parsons is a genius. He didn't get where he is today without his great knowledge and Love of music. He is a God of music. He's not even close to being scary . What's wrong with people. It's so immature to even say your scared of him. He's a very Nice looking man. With impeccable talent. I'm thankful he's on this earth.

This man is a multi talented Genius, his impecable attention to detail and knowledge of sound and enginering of music puts him ahead of the rest. a True Rock genius.

I can't believe I've just now come across this page... I'm one of those "Audiophiles" that is always looking for the perfect recordings to play thru my over priced system... but reality is, more important than any system is how good that recording is... and behind that is the engineer and producer.. Alan being a prime example of the best of the best.

Wow! What can you not love about Alan Parsons? Engineer/producer/singer/musician/host-voice over/genuine nice guy (everyone I've seen who has met him says he's a great guy)...and he has cats, dogs, chickens and a Clydesdale at his home with his family!

LIVING LEGEND MR PARSON

I’ve loved all of Alan Parsons work since I’ve been about 12 yrs. old through my brother, who bought his stuff. He truly is a genius!

This is a great introduction to Alan Parsons as well. I didn't know he'd contributed to many of the tracks that influenced me in my songs, recordings and productions. Thank you Alan.

This is like Cosmos for music recording. I'm so happy the KZfaq algorithm blessed me with this gift.

His lineage is very rich with music study and history, theater, etc. I believe nature and nurture in the formative years shaped him. He has taken the baton into the future. He is blessed. My hat is off to creative individuals.

Alan, I always appreciate the awesome way you explain sound things so interestingly.

a true genius- Alan parson.....GOD bless you and the accompanions

Thank you for making this video. I have been in the sound industry for about 25 years and this is a great video.

Well, Alan is the man really, love his work from Abbey Road, Dark Side of the Moon and Turn of the Friendly Card...

We ARE music. Thank you for showing me this. It´s been an honor to live ate the same time than you, Mr.Parsons.

Anyone notice Tim Pierce the session guitarist ? Alan Parsons is amazing ~

this is outstanding. I hope many beginning and emerging record producers pick this up and study it. It opens insight and education for new emerging producers.

It's great to see what a Master sees through his own eyes. You can learn and understand the mixing of sound ...then to music

Wow. I just discovered this video. Immediate saved favourite. God bless the legendary Alan Parson❤

the legend

Wow! How did I not know about this channel?! So awesome!

thanks for the video Alan I find it quite interesting

I love Alan Parsons....❤

Insightful history

very interesting, thank you

Damn, I want Alan to lead a programme telling about the history of music now.

Great information

brilliant

Very very good indeed

Wonderful introduction.

This a great summary of the history of sound recording, all in less than 10 minutes. The sixties were a great time for the development of recording techniques. I still have Alan's Eye in the Sky and Sirius on my iPhone. A couple of years ago, I rebuilt an Edison Cylinder Phonograph and made a short video on it. Restoration- Edison Fireside Phonograph (1911) plays again. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jZdze7CBx9S7YZs.html

Maximo nivel...☝️

Amen to that brother! :)

He didn't mention Edouard Leon Scott De Martinville he was the one that first took a cylinder and a sheet covered with soot and discovered that sound waves were traveling through the air

Impressive acoustic treatment @6.52

Genio 🐌🌹

Luv AP and all the APP Music 😅

Is that Kamasi Washington at 6:24 ?

Alan Parsons is the music man. They cant get better than him, because it's impossible to exceed his status...

I dont mind Alan Parsons taking over from Sir David Attenborough

Imagine if Jeff Lynne and Alan Parsons got together for a chat/interview. That would be awesome viewing.

What kind of Magnum P.I. intro was that?!

I think there is also an art to tuning your sound system to sound good with music too.

2:02 Sirius 2.0?

How do I get 1 of your DVDs ???

he is akin to the David Attenborough of the music and sound arts.

@9:26 That Mac logo would be lit up if it were on.

Musica perfecta salida de un Ingeniero

I thought its Gilmour who's talking at the beginning 🙌

Wow, that was the Hiromi's drummer!!!

🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Woah! Early recording in the Philippines. Who knew a 3rd world country had such a rich recording history?

Why are there so many deleted videos on the list? Was this You Tube privacy policy or was there another reason for them being deleted?

Alan Parsons has a 6'th 7'th and 8'th sense when it comes to sound.

🎺 🎶

⚜️ Yes! Do music; record music 🍿. - Miler Malkiy Tzadeq

Anyone else find it kind of odd/funny that the music at 1:54 is supposed to sound LIKE "Sirius," even though Alan Parsons himself is hosting the video? (I mean, I guess he's got to get permission from a few other rightsholders, Eric Woolfsen, among others, but still)

i'm a hifi audiophile and looking for the best recorded "Best of CD" i throw away poor recorded music cd's...please help me select...not interested in 11 different albums collection...just the best most popular songs on one or two cd that has a great recording...poor recordings and a lot of remastering stuff out there is junk...

REVOLVER N O T SGT PEPPER... was the LP that changed the science of sound recording

Multifunction musician

Time to get Sirius.

so i don't need to bother getting his latest albums, he fainted into the grey of standardised digital technology? :(

Is it just me or does his voice sound very similar to David Gilmours

San andreas intro???

As the actress said to the bishop: "where's the rest of it?"

❤❤❤ LORD, I ASK FOR FELICIA & I MEET/ WORK WITH ALAN PARSONS SOON, AMEN

🐌🐌🐌🐌👍

And all of this amazing technological achievement, the abilities, the equipment, the capturing, the reproduction, 20 to 20000 Hertz in almost that reciprocal of time! All wasted on a bunch of idiotic morons that think rap is music and a chord is something you use to close the drapes.

all of the studio people should simply visit more live concerts to know how the music originally sounds!!! most of the old "60-"70 sound much better than all this complex over-edited "all-sounds-equal" modern shit.

Fans all started stealing music. Paying musicians NOTHING for their work. Not good! And so what did the musicians all do? Keep on recording new music for the fans to get for free on the Internet. "If you don't give us all your music for free, we'll just go steal it anyway" is the new business model. NO PAY POLICY fans now expect the same quality music from ZERO BUDGET. Yes they actually think Alan will work to provide another 'Dark side of the moon' and then not get paid! Great business model! When I approached and gained the support from many people in the BEATLES camp twelve years ago I was trying to build a brand new Platform OWNED AND CONTROLLED by the musicians. The current business model is badly broken and working for free is not a business most smart people would go into! But HUNDREDS of millions of Hobbyists now think they can become Alan Parsons, LOL! My last few albums I worked with both Ian Bairnson and Chris Thompson from APP. And they both expected me to PAY THEM at the end of the session, LOL! And my last release was Uploaded to Illegal sites the WEEK BEFORE release date. People all enjoying Ian's wonderful solos but not paying me ONE DIME to help pay for Ian's skills! Yep. they all think this is fair! My friends in the Beatles camp know that GREAT MUSIC costs money! And FREE MUSIC is also NO BUDGET MUSIC. Not exactly good for helping future generations of musicians make QUALITY MUSIC! Is there a SOLUTION? Well, people like Alan Parsons need to DO SOMETHING to help the next generation of musicians get paid. Because this whole era of free music is a disaster for Professional musicians. Hey, I am retired and living happily in CA. I. did have people from the Beatles camp helping me as well as the AFM. But not the musicians. They were all too busy recording new FREE MUSIC for the fans! Hey I'm off to Stream Rip all of Alan's albums today! Yep, the new way of avoiding paying Alan for his amazing work. Guess he is okay with this?!

excelente! the Earth is Flat!

As much as I can appreciate Edison's invention, I can't dismiss his actions in the ways he promoted some of his work. For example, when he went across the country, in an attempt to demonstrate his DC power grid vs his competitor's (Telsa) AC power grid, Edison would electrocute elephants in front of large crowds. I'm not sure how many times he did this but even just once was enough for me to view Edison as a horrible human being.

THE WORST JOB IN THE WORLD -- Doing sound for the Alan Parsons Band. After 30 years, I am still not worthy. lol
