News4sa - Phil Collen Interview Quotes
Mutt Lange
"Oh of course it was an influence," he said. "Mutt Lange was a genius. I learned so much from him. He is so inspiring. He was so focused and wanted things a certain way. I took the same approach to recording this album."
Delta Deep Live Shows
"Wherever we play live, it really seems to work," he said. "We toured on West Coast last summer and we were shocked at the reaction. Debi's voice really reached a whole new level and helped us bring out the toughness in the songs. The crowd was really into it and couldn't have been any better. They seemed to really get into the music."
