In 2024, Alan was offered and signed a long term (many years) recording contract with the Numero Group record label. Numero is a major label with locations in Los Angeles, Chicago and London. The Numero Group has an excellent following and reputation world-wide for the quality of their releases.
The contract Alan signed with the Numero Group includes Alan’s entire catalog of eight albums and all of the individual songs included on those albums. The contract also includes one or two new album releases from Numero, utilizing songs which Alan wrote and recorded over the years, but were never released.
At this point, Numero has re-released all eight of Alan’s albums on the Numero Group Record label. Those albums are available for downloads and streaming on all of the worldwide streaming/download services. Additional projects with Alan’s songs and albums are planned and in motion.
The new Alan Munson solo album, “ABOUT TIME”, is a compilation of 13 previously unreleased songs that Alan wrote and recorded in the mid to late 1970’s. The songs on this album should have been released to the marketplace long ago.
ABOUT TIME is now available for purchase as a Limited Edition CD on the Bandcamp site, and ships worldwide. The album is also available on Bandcamp as high quality WAV, FLAC, MP3 digital downloads. You can check out the full album at: https://alanmunson.bandcamp.com/
…. On About Time, his new album, Alan sounds as liberated and restless as ever capturing the outsider in his most prolific era of songwriting. The album, a collection of recordings selected from various recording sessions in the 1970s, stands out in his catalogue as being his most confident and adventurous. Throughout his formidable career that has stretched nearly 5 decades, Alan Munson has continued to make thoughtful, beautiful, and down-right rockin’ folk-rock that has kept the spirit of 70’s, Easy Rider-style, open-road freedom alive and well. – Jiah Carron – Harbinger Magazine
… “About Time,” is a terrific album. All of the songs are well-crafted, and it is a great listen. Alan is clearly a skilled musician, vocalist and sound engineer who is in full control of his sounds, and fluent in their instrumentation and delivery. It is his songwriting, however, that sets him apart from the pack and has made his music so enduring. Great songs will transcend time and genre. This is what makes Alan’s music feel so personal to so many. – Mark Duda – Recording artist, Co-Host of the Clubb Tracks TV show – Toronto, Canada
At last, the long awaited new solo album release from Alan Munson, “About Time”, is finally here! Alan is a wonderful melody maker and the About Time album includes mellow songs, great vocals and beautiful guitars. It is a finished masterpiece that his fans will enjoy. – Hisao Kawada – Disk Union Tokyo, Japan

Sundazed Music/ Modern Harmonic Records has assembled and produced an essential compilation album of Alan Munson’s music, titled “One Man’s Journey”.
This “Best Of” compilation consists of songs from Alan’s “In Debt”, “Good Morning World” and “First Light” albums. “One Man’s Journey ” is a blend of singer-songwriter music, accompanied by beautiful guitar and vocals.
It would be unfair to place Munson’s music in a single genre — it’s a fusion of mellow psychedelic folk rock with the amazing atmosphere of the times. His recorded songs have a very intimate feel. Wonderful harmonies and meaningful lyrics will get deep under your skin, and the “stripped down” production gives these songs an even more intense personal ambiance.
