DELUXE by Gerry Arias
This album was initially recorded and mastered between 2007 and 2009 at Showplace Studios in Dover, NJ. It was produced and engineered by the late Ben Elliot and mastered by the renowned Howie Weinberg of Masterdisc, NYC. Brother Earth's contributions were included early in the sessions and featured in the original release, 2009. The album was reissued by Fama Llama Records in 2017, but the track order was changed.
The following is the original playlist as assembled by Ben. The three Brother Earth tracks sung by Gerry Arias were also mastered by Howie Weinberg after Gerry recorded the other 11 songs on his own, playing all the instruments. That version, featuring just Gerry, is available here as "The Mixed Signals.
