Wally on the window happened in 1998/99 and was an amazing collaboration of some very special musicians. The recording was done in Joe Talia's amazing 2" 24 track analogue studio and mostly live recordings with some overdubs later. These are some of my favourite Rhythm and Blues tracks and there are some awesome grooves and wonderful performances on this album. It helped me maintain my sanity while doing my PhD. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Steve+Dillon">Read more on Last.fm</a>

Quotes

  • [Preacher is] funny, dirty, a little bit frightening, but, ultimately, very satisfying—a bit like losing your virginity.
  • I aim to find time in my schedule for a decent night's sleep without cutting into my drinking time.
  • [Creator-owned projects] give you the chance to do your own ideas. But there's a lot of fun to be had working on characters that somebody else owns. I mean, before I die, I'd love to do a Batman [story]. I won't get as much money for it, unless it sells really really well. But it's something I'd like to do.
  • I think a lot of mainstream comics don't appeal to women, because that's the male fantasy of superheroes. [...] Preacher's more character-driven than it is action-driven.
  • Superheroes, the best superheroes, tend to be more soap opera-ish -- like the X-Men, and the old Spiderman stuff. But, that's for a continuing-forever sort of series. We've got a definite [Preacher] story that's got a definite finish, so soap opera is a bit of a disjointed term. But we do have the character subplot stuff going on.
  • [I]'ve got so much workload that [I] work about 12 hours a day. The last thing [I] want to do when [I] finish is read comics. It's like what Garth was saying. [I] work and then do something completely different. [...] It's part of the job really to keep aware of what other people are doing. But I just really haven't had the time to do anything else, anything else rather than the comic.
