“Los Angeles for four months with producer Peter Wolf. Get to record with some legends. Jerry Hey, Larry Williams, Paulinho Da Costa, Jeff Porcaro, Vinnie Collaiuta. House in Nichols Canyon; Rented Mustang; Earthquake. Constantly bumping heads with Peter. End up finishing album myself in London.
More record company upheaval; another MD; another A&R person. Not looking good. European tour with Elton John. Goodbye MCA. Time for a break.”
