One description calls this one of the Project’s “finest marriages of both concept and music.” AMG It says the theme “deals with the female's overpowering effect on man. There is an equally polarized view of the merits of the concept. On the other hand, you’ll find comments like “ Eve offers plenty of sonic grandeur the lyrics are almost clumsy and sententious enough to give sex a bad name.” RS Even more brutal is the claim that “ Eve is perhaps the worst engineered Project CD, for starters, its sound muddy and shallow in places…The drums lack punch in most cases, a sad undermixing of talented drummer Stuart Elliot, and David Paton’s bass work is little more than average.” DV Musically, the tempo appealingly switches back and forth from slow to quick, as does the temperament of the album.” AMG On one hand, you can find comments like “ Eve…involves some of this group’s most intricate songs” AMG that “are highly entertaining with catchy rhythms and intelligent lyrics. Fascinatingly enough, this may be one of those rare situations where both are half-true.” DV “One camp believes that it’s the worst thing that Parsons ever put together…Another camp believes it’s a misunderstood masterpiece. Perhaps no album polarizes the Alan Parsons Project fan more than this one.
