i think it was only under the radar for a day (he died this past week), sad

eric was under the radar for almost his whole career those projects were a large influence to what a group of us were were doing in that late 70s...used to have fun rearranging those uppity tracks and also high school folks liked hearing late night renditions of crooner ballads such as Time (very Pink Floyd-ish treatment by Parsons) ...there are only small clips of Eric laying on the net, wonderful writer and pianist, imo...i never heard their last few albums...those studio project type albums of theirs plus say, Klattu, Jarre and Oldfield, got a lot of listening at one time
