@spiritofradio  - Love that Patto album. Question: In the opener - "The Man" do you hear some background distortion/fuzz in the vocals and guitar? Can't tell if it is just my copy, which appears very clean and I don't hear it in the other tracks. I know "The Man" is the most popular track on the record, so perhaps someone played this track over and over and worn it out.

If you report no distortion, I may look for another copy as I LOVE this record and especially the opener - "The Man".

@slaw  - I have "Spirit in the Sky" and I really like it. Are the others as good IYO?

@reubent I think it’s in the recording.   The vocals clip on that cut.  The guitar a little less so but it’s there.   Mine is the 2002 reissue, NM, no wear or noise from the vinyl.  I actually don’t mind it.  True to the period.  

The Alan Parsons Project

I Robot

 

Completely at the other end of the progressive rock spectrum from Patto. 

@reubent re-reading your question I realize you may be referring to something else.  “Background” is different from what I hear, which is clipped/distorted vocal and guitar notes on the impacts.   Will give that track another spin later and (re)report.
