Pulled this off of Metal-Sludge. This is part of an interview with the singer of a former glam band called Wildside/Wildstorm/Wildasshair or something like that:
Q:Rumor has it that part of "Under The Influence" was recording at Eddie Van Halen's 5150, but it was never credited in the CD. Why is that and how did you guys end up at 5150?
A:Yes we recorded at 5150. We did all the guitar work, bass work and some vocal tracks there. Andy Johns had just finished "Carnal Knowledge" up there and felt comfortable recording there, that way he could hang out with Ed and see who could out drink who. That's another chapter I won't get into. We agreed not to advertise or tell anyone about recording there, on Ed's request. Capitol paid him cash and I guess he didn't want to declare it. So keeping it a secret was part of the deal. It was cool at first but after a while (3months later) nothing was getting done except to send the runner for some more coke and beer. Valerie threw us out.
Mezro...cash in pocket for Ed...wonder if he payed his taxes on this one...
