Richard Dashut on "Time"
 

So, Mr. Dashut answered my question....

Anonymous: “Hello Richard, what was it like working on the "Time" album during a period of such a big change within the band?”

I hated it. Remember having big problems with a stubborn Dave Mason, who wouldn’t take any production advice. Ended up quitting early on that one I was so frustrated. Felt like a big let down after five quality albums and with no Stevie and Lindsey, I had no real spiritual connection to the project. I probably agreed to do it in the first place just for the money, my bad!
