I have a feeling towards this that it is more a case of "Two Many Cooks."
How would they go about dividing up the workload of a
self-produced/promoted record?  Figure that you have to have Buck and
Eric in there, it would probably be in Allen's best interests then would
the new guys be included or would they even want to?  Plus the "touring"
schedule would have to be worked around.  Also I see the touring as the
only new source of income for the group so why put that aside just to cut
a record?

In the case of Al and Deb whre it is pretty much their project and band
and they get to call the shots it's a much easier thing to undertake.
And living in the same household probably helps a lot too.
