The Alan Parsons Project 50th Anniversary Commemorative Book: Pre-Order Now!
The official hardback book commemorating The Alan Parsons Project's 50th anniversary is now available for pre-order. Written by Joel McIver, a devoted fan and Prog contributor, the book contains a 50,000-word narrative enriched with never-before-seen material from Eric Woolfson's archive. Sally Woolfson, Eric's daughter, inherited the archive after his passing in 2016 and spent years organizing its contents due to his habit of hoarding everything without proper filing.
Sally shares in an exclusive video that her father's archive in Kent holds a vast collection of material, including photographs and memorabilia. She highlights a favorite photo of Parsons and Woolfson, revealing that she still possesses the shirt her father wore in the picture. The book promises to feature exclusive interviews with Eric Woolfson, Alan Parsons, family members, friends, and musicians who contributed to the albums, offering unique insights into the band's history.
Published by Rocket 88 with Parsons' involvement, the book aims to preserve the legacy of The Alan Parsons Project and ensure Eric Woolfson's significant role is recognized alongside Alan's contributions. The publishers describe the book as a deluxe and intricately designed piece that traces the band's journey from 1975 to 1990. It is available in two special editions, one of which is limited and signed, including an art print and a CD featuring Eric discussing the early days of the Project from a recently discovered cassette in the family archive.
To secure your copy of this special book, you can pre-order through the Alan Parsons Project Book website. Don't miss this opportunity to delve into the untold stories and unseen treasures of The Alan Parsons Project's remarkable history.
