We've got hundreds of tracks to upload to Soundcloud, and we're gradually filling them in. Some of these mixes are from 40 years ago (you can tell), and some are from last week. Recording technology has advanced a lot in the intervening years. Some of these are rough mixes and some have been mastered and released. We'd love to hear questions or comments about these songs or talk to you about remixing anything you've got. And we can coach as we go if you want.
Dan Daley is a musician and music journalist who divides his time between Nashville and New York. He recently brought us some 24-tracks from 39th Street Studios in the early 80s for us to restore. The lyrics and vocals are superb. We've got them ready for streaming release. We particularly like "Restless Heart". "Can't Stop Loving You" really shows off his voice.
We were sent the 24-track master tape of some 1990 tracks by Nashville singer/songwriter Linda Hargrove. Linda wrote many hits for others, including "Tennessee Whiskey". Here's our mix of her rendition of "Let It Shine".

Brad Smith, a friend of TRC for decades, was a talented songwriter, and we recorded lots of his stuff. For some reason he recorded this tune twice, in 1983 and 1993, so he must have liked the song. Here's our 2021 remix of the tracks we did in 1983.
We recorded albums for this iconic Indy rock band in the 70s, then a live performance in 1980 or so. We restored and remixed that 1980 tape in Nashville in 2016.

We produce music for Kay Vega, a prolific singer/songwriter from Berlin, to distribute in the EU. His main genre is Americana, but this tune has the potential in the U.S. Jackson G sings this demo, with arrangements and tracks by Tommy Harden and production, vocals and mixing here at TRC. So far, not released, so let us know if you want Kay's tune.

Our favorite Guess Who song. We riffed off the live version to create this in the studio.
This album, released in 2024, is a compilation of songs by the band Reformation. It includes singles recorded in Indiana in the early 70s, and seven recent songs from our "21st Century Classic Rock" project, where we cover 60s and 70s songs with today's recording techniques.
