Children of the Moon

The piece Children of the Moon, with its 4 minutes and 51 seconds duration, is included in the sixth studio album by The Alan Parsons Project, titled Eye in the Sky, released in 1982. This work marked a peak in the group's career, achieving platinum status and being recognized with the Golden Reel Award. The album's focus shifted towards a more pop rock sound, though without losing its progressive rock roots, characterized by careful sound production and details that invited attentive listening.

The project, led by Alan Parsons and Eric Woolfson, was formed in London in 1975 and distinguished itself by its conceptual approach to each album. Eye in the Sky was no exception, and Children of the Moon adds to this tradition. The recording featured engineering by Alan Parsons and Tony Richards, while production was handled by Chris Blair, Alan Parsons, and Eric Woolfson. Throughout their career, the group was characterized by the participation of various guest vocalists, such as Lenny Zakatek or Colin Blunstone, and a core of stable studio musicians, including guitarist Ian Bairnson and bassist David Paton.
