First of all......as i understood yesterday.....OL did ask him in the past to produce an album (Mabool?).....but he was really busy that time.....
I spent most of the gig with him.....and he really liked the show.....
and it is very important to add.....Steven is a master producer......he did a great job with his bands and projects, as well as with Opeth......but he had the chance to produce other albums as well.....like Anja Garbarek, who is a norwegian singer , with jazz influences......
so.....he's a multi-styled producer.......of course he puts his signature on the albums.....but the main sound is the artist's one.....and that's why he love the production......
in my opinion.....(like Avi's).....OL will stay OL forever......
and Steven just can add to that......
