Back in the day [1984], the Harold Faltermeyer classic instrumental bested the usual “vocally dominated” charts for 19 weeks, reaching number 2 on the UK Singles Chart and number 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the US.
Kearns crafted his first full cover production with help from Douglas Romanow and mastering by Sterling Sound’s Chris Gehringer.
I ask questions of your some of your favorite artists.
