The Alan Parsons Project - The Gold Bug (Official HD Video)

[@franchesteve9118]

That album, "the turn of a friendly card" is an absolute masterpiece, one of the best rock albums ever

[@ZJhontu1]

The first album I bought as a kid.

[@patrickpeters298]

I use to put it on the turntable to study by and would flip it once the first side ended. Played it for hours. A masterpiece of an album! 100%🔥🔥🔥

[@jenniferlehr2241]

100% Alan Parsons & Pink Floyd masters

[@esmokah]

I concur

[@esmokah]

​@ZJhontu1 my man 😎

[@Lizard-of-Oz]

This is the music you'll never get tired of. I was about 10 when my brother brought this vinyl record at home. 1981, 1982 I should think! I was hypnotized by this song. Aw man, what the hell happened to music?! I'm glad I was there to live the glorious 80's.

[@mariocarman]

Compartimos sentimiento y vivencias similares. No sé en qué momento todo se fue al tacho, a la basura. En algún punto no hubo recambio generacional correcto y ahora estamos inmersos en la maldita Agenda 2030 que arruina hasta a la música...Saludos desde Córdoba, Argentina 🇦🇷✌🏻😎!

[@Lizard-of-Oz]

@@mariocarman Saludos! Fue la mercadotecnia de mediados de los '90s que arruinó todo, siempre ha sido así, la diferencia es que en los '80s la musica pop aún siendo comercial era digerible, hoy en dia es muy vomitable. Todo suena igual! y se sigue usando la misma fórmula.

[@JoseAngelMorente]

@@Lizard-of-Oz En efecto, a mediados de los 90 empezó a irse todo al carajo.

[@Lizard-of-Oz]

@ Vaya!! Por fin me topé con alguien que lo ve de la misma manera que yo! Creo que una de las ideas en música que mantuvieron a la música activa en mediados de los ‘90s fueron los unplugged. Después, la música empezó a fusionar y surgió el Newmetal, que en mi opinión fue el total colapsó en la música y la total degradación de ella. Música que no tragó ni en píldoras

[@JoseAngelMorente]

@@Lizard-of-Oz sí aunque el problema de los unplugged es que sonaban pobres, pues eran versiones de canciones que nunca fueron pensadas para ese formato. Pero sí, a partir de ahí ya la cosa se fue jodiendo, y cada año pensábamos que era imposible ir a peor, hasta que apareció el reguetón y ya entendimos que el mundo se había ido a la mierda por completo.

[@marcconyard5024]

What a fantastic album was "Turn of a friendly card"! I never imagined that the harpsichord could be used in a prog rock format and work so beautifully.

[@Yesshows01]

Your comment demonstrates that you never heard Yes. Rick Wakeman used harpsichord many times in their albums. I agree that The Turn of a Friendly Card is a fantastic album.

[@nickavenoso7851]

Turn of A Friendly Card is in my top APP albums along with I Robot. I just love it, especially the 16 minute suite. The thing that I always loved about the Alan Parsons Project was that even their radio singles were experimental and went through many different changes unlike what we hear today in popular music.

[@ChronoTango]

Tales Of Mystery And Imagination, “Cask Of Amontillado” has a subtle harpsichord in the build up after each verse.

[@kennydeedj]

Absolutely Masterpiece.

[@randy5655]

The last of their great albums.

In Germany 1979-1982. Bought this album on a whim.I have all of them now. Absolutely great music…

[@dubfiredbk2842]

I had cassettes...still a teenager i would play Allan Parsons and Supertramp

[@heintjedetzler1257]

[@rommix0]

This is a good song to use as a reference track when mixing your own music.

[@greghall7796]

Timeless classic - got to luv the brilliance of the 1980’s

[@alanburge4798]

Eerie. A sense of isolation. You feel alone. You are alone. This song this tune paints a very powerful picture. It really belongs in a movie soundtrack. It is very worthy. Evocative. Rich. Disturbing. Powerful.

[@theresalsmith8321]

I think this song was used on Miami Vice alot

[@1paultay]

It sounds like it could be the theme tune for an early '80s BBC detective drama

[@fjdyyh2542]

This is exactly what I felt when I got to listen to this for the first time. It matched my already existing feelings 100%. Old vinyl, dark autumn night, started from the b side. I was hypnotized instatly. This piece has then become super important for me in some way. Comforting and empowering. Loved all Alan Parsons music since.

[@Emerymelvin166]

I never get tired of listening to the Alan Parsons Project. I just love it.Discovered them when I was in my Early 20s

The album " the turn of a friendly card " is an absolute masterpiece, one of the best rock albums ever heard

[@edisongamarra691]

For me a fantastic instrumental 1980

[@basspartout]

One of the best sounding albums ever made.

[@KevinStriker]

My favourite instrumental that they ever did.

[@billcampbell9949]

I remember hearing APP for the first time it was something from tales of mystery that moment stands still for me in time I didn’t know who I was listening to but I knew I wanted more thus began my journey with Alan Parsons … now almost 50 years later having the pleasure of meeting him and talking with him if only for a few minutes I realize `the talent and passion this man has for music .just listened to EVE again my favorite album such rhythmic music with layer after layer of something going on and the voice of Lenny Zacatek singing about life from the bottom of his heart this is what makes his music so special for me .Thank you for the memories of yesterday,today,and tomorrow.

[@mikemyers6233]

It's so nice to be able to play all of the Alan Parsons songs I have. Just wish I had the stereo system I had back then. You could hear every little note. Was an $1800.00 dollar system back in early 80s. Sound so good. Loved playing Alan Parsons Project on it. All of the LPs wow what a sound.

[@A1361ma]

Perfect ... Awsome ... Best forever

[@labidouille67]

One of the best tune of our history

[@juanclopez2040]

No se porque pero cada vez que la escucho me gusta mas ,sera que me recuerda mis 12 años el paso de la niñes a la adolescencia ,tiempos en donde uno escuchaba estas melodias y te invitaban a soñar ,tiempos en donde no habia internet , ni smartphones y era mas dificil descubrir estas canciones ,con suerte la pasaban en una buena radio y te compraba el Disco o casete .Por suerte ya pude verlo en vivo dos veces en mi Buenos Aires

[@UrsulaDyck_Author]

WOW! Love this! Just groovin' to the beat and music. The video is great too. Sends me to another place and time...

[@donmaikurosawa1500]

Those times when a guy could start working in a studio with The Beatles, then begin working with Pink Floyd for years. Alan had a lot of technical knowledge and musical inspiration for his works.

[@pieterpieters9998]

It is a Masterpiece!❤️❤️

[@Sabino_Tozza_ing]

masterpiece and timeless

[@michaelshea5622]

The world would have been a lot worse if we hadn't had a man Named Alan Parsons in it. I'm so glad I heard his music from the beginning to now.

This fifth studio album is a masterpiece, my favorite song is "Games People Play" sung by an inspired Lenny Zakatek.

[@vinilo47]

tremendo tema del rock sinfonico......pensar q ya lo habia escuchado con otro tema a APP, despues de un tiempo volverlo a escucharlo con este maravillosos tema me causo mucha alegria por esos años....lindo recuerdo....aun lo sigo escuchando....y lo seguire escuchando hasta mis ultimos dias.....

[@Marctull66]

I had never seen this video.... I never saw many at the time, but I remember one for another instrumental, which is quite surprising, Mammagamma. The Gold Bug was something i really liked on The Turn of A Friendly Card, and still now, a fairly intriguing and pleasant instrumental piece. Nice to see some keyboards used on this track. the keyboard part was not so obvious in the end, unlike what I seemed to hear.
