Speaking of Alan Parsons, are you aware that he was a studio engineer on Pink Floyd's Dark Side Of The Moon? He was also involved in "producing" other hits such as Pilot's "Magic" and Al Stewart's "Year Of The Cat" (which is one of my favorite "soft-rock" hits of all time).
Bottoms up!
“Don’t answer me” is a great choice. I also like “If I could change your mind” a lot and wish they had done more with that singer. “Try Anything Once” didn’t get a lot of press but had some great songs on it.
