		When Pitrelli got "the call" at the tail end of 1999 from Megadeth drummer Jimmy DeGrasso - a friend of almost 20 years and a recent Mega-recruit that same year - he figured it was just another situation to help out a band with a departing member.

	Interview with Al Pitrelli, 1996
		AL: It's hard to say for me, 'cause I was the last one to join the band, but as far as I can say, I think that the quality of the songwriting has bettered a lot.
		Jon and Paul, that are the main songwriters in the band, have greatly improved their songwriting style and as time went by, they also paid more and more attention to details that might seem secondary, such as arrangements and mixdown.
		AL: No, I didn't contribute, I couldn't and I didn't want to because that live is a tribute from Jon and Paul to Criss and so a very emotional thing.

	LOUD! Online -- Megadeth Interview
		He'd had an argument with Al Pitrelli who'd taken off somewhere up the Cross with the band's manager to ring the Savatage guys for his old job back.
		It's no doubt highly possible, however, that, as he sits opposite me in a small reception room in Darlinghurst's Kirketon Hotel, a rather slightly-built, evenly-spoken man in a faded fl t-shirt and jeans, that most of those tales are wild exaggerations.
		Pitrelli's former band was Savatage of course, yet Megadeth is probably more accommodating to his style than many would think.

		Then, last year, I met him in Cologne, and I said, "Al, I'm working on a new record." He said, "I'd love to play on it, and how about right now?" It was like 3 O' Clock in the morning.

	EOM Entertainment: O'2L / Doyle's Brunch (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		O'2L (pronounced "O'Toole", apparently in honor of actor Peter O'Toole) is the nom de disc of musical partners Jane Mangini and Al Pitrelli.
		Keyboardist Mangini and guitarist Pitrelli have created a heady brew of jazz, electronica, rock, and funk that has no musical equal, to my knowledge.
		Although both Mangini and Pitrelli are trained musicians (Mangini went to Berklee College Of Music and Pitrelli was classically schooled), listening to this album doesn't give you the feeling of two "musos" showing off their chops for the sake of it.
