Hmmm . My guess is these were already written and Jim was approached and asked if he had anything. I doubt he agreed to work with Air Supply and THEN wrote something, and I imagine he was writing Eclipse all through the 70's, as it's origins lie in the Dream Engine.

I would like to see a book about his musical history/studio work as I reckon there's quite a bit of stuff not many people know about. For starters, a detailed chapter on the Def Leppard saga would be a great read.

To Hell and Back is okay but not very in depth. Meat & Jim teaming up again for Bat 2, and the subsequent recording of the album, was seriously lacking any decent info.
