Product description

The Alan Parsons Project's tenth studio album, Gaudi, is a masterful tribute to the life and work of renowned Catalan architect Antoni Gaudí. Released in 1987, this symphonic rock masterpiece is a testament to the band's ability to craft intricate, progressive soundscapes that transport listeners to another era.

The album's opening track, 'La Sagrada Familia', sets the tone for a journey through the grand conceptions of Gaudí's iconic architecture, with the Sagrada Família cathedral being a prominent inspiration. With its leaner, edgier sound, Gaudi showcases the band's growth and experimentation, as evident in tracks like 'Standing on Higher Ground' and the exquisitely orchestrated instrumental 'Paseo de Gracia'.

Featuring a range of talented musicians, including Miles, Woolfson, Zakatek, and Rainbow, Gaudi is a culmination of The Alan Parsons Project's signature style and their ability to push the boundaries of progressive rock. Although it marked the end of their contractual obligations with Arista Records, Gaudi remains a standout album in the band's discography, with its unique blend of classic rock and symphonic elements.

With a duration of 1 hour and 4 minutes, Gaudi is a carefully crafted album that showcases The Alan Parsons Project's musical prowess. The band's core membership, consisting of producer and audio engineer Alan Parsons, brings a level of sophistication and depth to the album, making it a must-listen for fans of progressive rock and classic rock. Released on 1 January 1987, under the Arista/Legacy label, Gaudi is an album that continues to inspire and captivate audiences with its enduring sound and timeless themes.

This LP was released in 1989.

  • Brilliant Pressing, Sharp Highs

    4 out of 5 stars
    rfaijo68December 31, 2025United States🇺🇸

    Absolutely brilliant pressing, just as perfect as many (even though, sadly, not all) MOV reissues tend to be. The highs can get a tad too intense and sharp at times, but they remain clear and distortion-free.

  • Vinyl Masterpiece: Standing Higher

    4 out of 5 stars
    Ygpiuta5March 7, 2025United States🇺🇸

    Gorgeous vinyl release of one of my all-time favorite APP records. This one is absolutely stunning! Barely any background noise, even when turned up loud. Just a couple of tiny, barely-there clicks (it was pre-cleaned). The sound is wide and full of life, with deep bass and the mids/highs are just spot on, as you'd expect from Mr. Parsons. I've owned this on Cassette and CD for ages, and "Standing On Higher Ground" has always been a top pick for me, and it just sounds incredible here as the layered vocals at the end melt into the silent black. Music on Vinyl and Record Industry really knocked it out of the park with this one. I haven't heard the original pressing, but this version is way more captivating than my CD, Cassette or any digital stream.

  • Homeland Album Gem

    5 out of 5 stars
    kayafim67639April 14, 2024United States🇺🇸

    Stunning audio quality, as expansive as one might hope for an APP recording. Lucky to own a copy from the homeland of the album's title, and it's in fantastic condition.

  • Brilliant Album Tribute

    5 out of 5 stars
    etadawynijFebruary 1, 2024United States🇺🇸

    This is a fantastic version of a brilliant album. Just give a listen to the final track, Paseo De Gracia! Amazing! It might not be the most famous album by the APP, but I'm really fond of the melodies and the production. The reason I decided to buy it now was the recent passing of Mr. John Miles, who lent his vocals to 'La Sagrada Familia' and 'Money Talks'.
