In a 1993 ''Ray Gun'' magazine interview, Eitzel said, "I'll never do a solo record. That solo record (''Songs Of Love Live'') only happened because I bought a new guitar out of it. At that point in time, I wasn't even sure if AMC would continue. We were in between [[Frontier Records|Frontier]] and [[Alias Records|Alias]] and everyone was threatening us with massive lawsuits. I did it because I made a decision that I would take every opportunity that was given to me."<ref>{{cite magazine |last=Howard |first=David |date=May 1993 |title=Hanging By A Thread |url= |magazine=Ray Gun |location=Santa Monica, CA |publisher=Marvin Scott Jarrett |access-date=January 16, 2017}}</ref> | |||
