80s & 90s songs & lyrics studio

The 80 and early 90s were mostly spent in recording studios. These songs were produced in 8 and 24 track studios in the Vancouver BC area. Most were recorded in Profile sound studio of which I was a part owner, manager, and engineer. All drums and guitars are live, mostly with Phil Robertson on drums, Don Biggar on Bass, and Terry Alton on lead guitar.
