[bit.listserv.allmusic] The Jeff Berlin controversy rages on

PRESTON@MOREKYPR.BITNET (02/08/90)

     Well, I hate to do it, but I'm gonna have to break down all these things
  I have to post replies to into two postings. I just don't wanna p.o. Krazy
  any more than necessary (since we had technical difficulties speaking to each
  other on relay last night... at least I *think* that's what it was).  :)
     By-tor: Do you have _Champion_ there in front of you?  Like I say, my
  "legit" copy (vinyl) is elsewhere, and it's been a few years since I last
  looked at the credits for it, but as I remember, Peart only played on the
  one tune, "Marabi". Allan Holdsworth is absolutely nowhere to be found on
  that album... of that, I am certain. I might easily forget what Peart's
  total contributions were to _Champion_, but Holdsworth?  Never. :)  A.H.
  and Berlin have played together on Holdsworth's solo EP _Road Games_ , and
  on two Bruford solo albums, _One of a Kind_ , and _Feels Good To Me_ , but
  I don't think they've recorded together other than that.
     Btw, as far as Steve Smith goes, he probably did the majority of drumming
  on _Champion_ , as Berlin likes working with him very much. He is very hot.
     And... Rando and I got about halfway through "La Villa..." before I went
  to work Wednesday night. We were rudely interrupted by the end pin falling
  out of my guitar. Sometimes, I wish I'd taken up trumbone...
