Default Gerhard Gschossmann -"Eye in the sky" (Alan Parsons Project)-fingerstyle solo guitar

Hi friends of fingerstyle guitar music,

this is my arrangement of "Eye in the sky", one of the biggest hits of the Alan Parsons Project.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z2r3xQnE37Y

This song was recorded in 1982. With some songs from their earlier records they really had big influence to me, because the compositions and the sounds were really special to that time..... And also this one is a great song and is really fun to play on just 1 guitar.... ;-)))

Hope you like my fingerstyle version of it...
greetings from Germany
Gerhard
