The only thing of theirs I have is the album with Gene. When was this other album recorded? I will have to do some checking on Allmusic but will try not to lift articles from there wholesale and paste them here...
I think Black Swan is clearly the band at the end of its natural life. Too Hot To Move and New Year's Greeting I think are beautiful and show a lush area that Dave McComb might have mined successfully if, and its a big IF, the band had carried on and had large enough sales to support major production costs.
If you check the photos on the solo album you can see the changes in DM's appearance. He clearly wasn't a healthy guy by that time, even if the heart problems were not obvious or diagnosed, but it was touring to supprt that album when he was taken ill and returned to Australia (from New York I believe).
I can't get a handle on the relationship/influence of Will Akers. ONe minute he's co-writing songs and (presumably) having the solo album named after him, whilst being a completely broke street person. After DM's death, Akers seems to have disappeared off the planet.
I don't feel comfortable asking Graham Lee about it. After all its really none of my business and I am just being nosey about a personal tragedy and I don't think that would go down well.
