''Chitarre ran a long article on Allan in May 1991. The article includes an interview, two transcriptions, and some musical examples with analysis. The interview has been transcribed, and is given in the following. First, there's the original Italian version. Next, there's a machine back translated version with a little human editing. As always, translating back and forth means that Allan's given answers are not the same as what he originally said during the interview, so read with caution. Hopefully, most of the original meaning comes through. For the remainder of the article, with transcriptions and musical analysis, please check the images below.'' | ''Chitarre ran a long article on Allan in May 1991.
