Artist: THE ALAN PARSONS PROJECT
Album: "VULTURE CULTURE EXPANDED EDIT. (CD)"

Year: 1984/ 2007
Media type: CD

Vulture Culture is an album by The Alan Parsons Project. The first side of the LP (CD tracks 1-4) consists entirely of four-minute pop songs, and the second side varies widely, from the subdued funk of the title track to the bouncing, desert-like "Hawkeye". "Days Are Numbers (The Traveller)" is held to be one of the Project's best songs. At the beginning of 1985, the single "Let's Talk About Me" reached the Top 40 in Germany (where the album was #1) and in the Netherlands. The song features voice-over commentary from Lee Abrams, credited on the album as "Mr. Laser Beam" (an anagram of his name).

Originally, the album was intended to be the second LP of a double album, with Ammonia Avenue being the first. "Sooner or Later" was recently described by Parsons himself as, "the third attempt to try and get another hit with the "Eye in the Sky"'esque chugging guitar l - Prime Time from Ammonia Avenue was the second, which I thought was a little more successful in that respect."

The song "Hawkeye" is mostly an instrumental but contains a line from Monica, a woman working at the canteen in Abbey Road Studios. The line she says is: "Only what's on the menu".

This is the only Project album that does not feature the orchestration of Andrew Powell.
All songs written by Eric Woolfson, Alan Parsons, expect where noted.
