   This is a query/questionnaire to other Alan Parsons Project fans.  Have
you noticed that most non-APP-fans (including record stores and the New Rol-
ling Stone Record Guide) consider "I, Robot" to be the group's best album?
   Interestingly enough, most APP-fans that I know consider I, Robot to be
an inferior album, especially when compared with Tales of Mystery and Imagin-
ation.  So the question is this:  how do you rank the APP albums, from Tales
to Vulture Culture?  Here's my list:

     1.) Tales of Mystery and Imagination
     2.) Turn of a Friendly Card
     3.) Eye in the Sky
     4.) Ammonia Avenue
     5.) Pyramid
     6.) Vulture Culture
     7.) Eve  (penalized for the Bee-Gees-like "You Won't be There")
     8.) I, Robot

   If I've left one out, it's because I'm in a hurry.  Mail me replies and
I'll post a summary.  (I left out the Greatest Hits collection on purpose)
