The aforementioned meeting with Andre Williams occurred when PowerSolo, still then a duo, opened for him at Voxhall in Aarhus, DenmarkAfter a few exchanges backstage, Andre's tour manager summoned the duo to meet with Andre in his dressing room, where Andre then expressed an interest in recording a version of PowerSolo's number entitled "SLB"Two songs were recorded at Delta Lab in Denmark, however never surfaced due to Williams having a stint of ill health shortly afterWilliams would try to contact the group during the recording of their next album to approach them about being his backing band for his next european tour, however contact was again lost due to Williams' health issues, and plans and endeavors with him fell throughKim Kix cites Andre as being a major influence on the group
