Eric Woolfson

Eric formed the core of the Project along with Alan Parsons. He has writing credit on all Project tracks with the exception of Total Eclipse (which was written by Andrew Powell) although he apparently played little part in the development of instrumentals - apart from Where's The Walrus? As well as his hefty contributions towards song-writing, he became one of the most distinctive project vocalists. He turned semi-solo with Freudiana, an album on which Alan Parsons only received production credit. Since the break up of the Project he has produced a two further musicals, Gaudi - based on the Project album of the same name and Gambler which revisits songs from a number of Project albums. He is currently working on his fourth musical, tentatively entitled Poe.
