Juicy!, really the "The Turn of a Friendly Card" was just an amazing album, a must have IMO..

I think I just realized I don't think I have ever heard an Alan Parson's Song, and I usually are the go to guy for 80's songs.

Oh, and RIP.

APP wasn't known for many hit singles, his albums were progressive concept style. "Turn of a friendly card" spawned 2 top 40 hits, Games people play and the gorgeous "Time". Also the albums theme, gambling and it's excitement, addiction, and ultimate destruction are brilliantly examined. Given how much gambling in general has increased since it's 1980 release it seems almost prophetic..
