Read an interview with Alan Clark, and one reason he thinks The Straits are better than any DS lineup (his words) is the rhythm section, i.e. the drums and bass (Steve Ferrone and Mick Feat). It apparently is very important that the drummer and bassist "click". Maybe both Glen and Mark feel that Ian and Glen is the perfect match? I'd guess musicians at that level would be able to adjust easily to each other, but apparently not.

Same opinion here about Glen and Danny. In fact I wrote the same in reply #16 of this thread!  ;D

We are able to listen to the results of a great rhythm section on the new album! If Glen was the driving force behind this choice, it was a good decision.

So he doesn't like Illsey's and Terry's approach on songs, is it?
