I finally sorted this out after a few hours of updating pages.
The 9 new songs are all by Barry, Stephen, Ashley, credited in that order.
They were all copyright in 2015 with the same credits.
Star Crossed Lovers, 2004, is by Barry and Ashley, but the booklet adds
Stephen.
Shadows, 2008, is by B S A and Douglas Emery, but the booklet drops Emery.
The copyright registrations have another song called Light, same date and
writers. It sounds as if they were meant to go together!
Grand Illusion, 2009, by B S A and Emery, correctly stated in the booklet.
The three bonus tracks are all by Barry, Ashley, Stephen in that order but
are stated in the inner tray with Stephen before Ashley as in the new
songs. Grey Ghost was written in 2006, and Daddy's Little Girl and
Soldier's Son in 2007.
The only missing Barry cuts are Underworld, Doctor Mann, and Drown on the
River, and I can live without having the first two in physical form.
