Born in Glasgow, Scotland, singer/songwriter, lyricist, and producer Eric Woolfson moved to London at the age of 18 to pursue a career in music, first as a session pianist and eventually as a successful songwriter. A foray into artist management in the early '70s introduced Woolfson to engineer/record producer Alan Parsons, with whom he would eventually join forces with under the moniker the Alan Parsons Project. He continued writing musicals throughout the '80s and '90s, including Gaudi, Gambler, Edgar Allen Poe, and Dancing with Shadows. He released the album Woolfson Sings the Alan Parsons Project That Never Was in 2009, just prior to losing his life to cancer. ~ James Christopher Monger
