Allan was an amazing guy to hang out with on multiple levels. first off his talent was from another galaxy !!! he was very funny and so self deprecating. sometimes it was difficult to work with him because he could hate everything he played one day and then the next day love it . Once he played six or seven of the most amazing solos I ever heard in my life then proceeded to walk over to the 24 track machine and engage record on all the tracks he played and erase them. :( He announced that he was a **** guitar player and no one would ever hear the crap he just recorded dropped his guitar on the floor and stormed out of the studio without his gear! Then he could come back on another day and be totally into what he was playing. He was a tortured genius. | Allan was an amazing guy to hang out with on multiple levels. first off his talent was from another galaxy !!! he was very funny and so self deprecating. sometimes it was difficult to work with him because he could hate everything he played one day and then the next day love it .
