Pyramid is a progressive rock album by The Alan Parsons Project. It was released in 1978 (see 1978 in music). At the time this album was conceived, interest in pyramids and so-called pyramid power was very popular. A pyramid could be found on the back of a dollar bill, there were stories in the newspapers about the supposed magical properties of pyramids and of course, the cover of The Dark Side of the Moon (in which Parsons was the sound engineer). The album therefore contains numerous references to ancient wonders, including the Egyptian pyramids. This is most notable in the songs "What Goes Up" and "Pyramania".
All tracks written by Alan Parsons and Eric Woolfson
Pyramid was remastered and reissued in 2008 with the following bonus tracks:
