Ammonia Avenue is one of the most successful albums for the Alan Parsons Project. It was the second of the group's three most accessible (and commercially successful) albums, beginning with Eye in the Sky and ending with Vulture Culture. Stereotomy, which came after, was not quite in the same league, despite boasting arguably the band's most moving song, "Limelight". Interestingly, Ammonia Avenue was originally going to be released as a double album with Vulture Culture's material forming the second record.

"Don't Answer Me" is generally regarded as Ammonia Avenue's best song, with the title track a close second. "You Don't Believe" was also a minor hit.
