    He hated Velvet Darkness, if I remember correctly he said they told him they were just going to rehearse but the guys in the control room was recording everything. And then Allan being Allan, not having control of the outcome, well, he wasn't pleased. And who can blame him?

    I have it on vinyl and I do like the Wtc cover art.
    Also some of the albums with Gordon Beck are really nice, and pretty rare. At least back in the days.
