It constitutes a new production of original songs.
Each finished song was created using the original 1974-1990 recording
to provide the basic foundation for engineering the complete AI or Audio Stem Production.
The original song creation and recording had already been completed 40-50 years earlier.
At that time, each original song had its own lyrics, melody, harmonies,
rhythm instrument performances, lead instrument performances, bass performances,
keyboard and string performances, tempo, and vocal range.
Each Original Song recording from 1974-2006 was
produced, recorded, and engineered by
Tom Farley and Steve Gallagher.
Below the playlist are liner notes (click here)
for each of the songs, authors, artists, and genres represented.
