Quella che segue vuole
essere la lista di tutti gli album ai quali Alan
Parsons ha collaborato, ordinati cronologicamente
per anno di pubblicazione. Sicuramente la lista non
č completa, soprattutto per i lavori dove il nostro
non č stato accreditato, ma č il massimo che al
momento sono riuscito a fare mettendo assieme tutte
le informazioni raccolte in questi anni.
Data la visibilitŕ
anche internazionale del sito, al momento si č
deciso di compilare la lista in inglese. Una
versione tradotta in italiano potrebbe essere
aggiunta nel prossimo futuro.
(This
is the list of albums where you can find Alan
Parsons contributions, chronologically listed by the
release date).

BEWARE:
Alan Parsons informed me that there's another
sound engineer called Allan Parsons, from Australia.
So, sometimes if you find the "Allan Parsons" name it
may be a writing error for the English Alan Parsons or
it may be referring to the Australian Allan Parsons.
In this case only Alan can confirm or not his
contribution for that particular album. An example of
this is the album entitled "E" by the jazz band The
Benders, remastered by Allan Parsons. Alan informed me
that he had nothing to do with this album.
