Parsons Code developer Denys Parsons, his mother, Kelty MacLeod.
Parsons's great-grandfather was the notable stage actor and theatre
manager Herbert Beerbohm-Tree, and the film actor Oliver Reed was a
distant cousin, although they never met.Parsons was involved with the
production of several albums, including the Beatles' Abbey Road (1969)
and Let It Be (1970), Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon (1973),
and the eponymous debut album by Ambrosia in 1975. Parsons's own
group, The Alan Parsons Project, as well as his subsequent solo
recordings, have also been commercially successful. He has been
nominated for 13 Grammy Awards, with his first win occurring in 2019
for Best Immersive Audio Album for Eye in the Sky (35th Anniversary
Edition).In October 1967, at the age of 18, Parsons went to work as an
assistant engineer at Abbey Road Studios, where he earned his first
credit on the LP Abbey Road. He became a regular there, engineering
such projects as Wings' Wild Life and Red Rose Speedway, five albums
by the Hollies, and Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon, for which
he received his first Grammy Award nomination. He was known for doing
more than what would normally be considered the scope of a recording
engineer's duties.[citation needed] Alan Parsons Biography, NetWorth, Height, Age, Weight, Family, Married, Son, Daughter
