DEATH IN EUROPE WITHOUT CHUCK (1990)
Allegedly the first European tour was a disaster, it was really unorganized and it probably left the band in debt. So when they booked the second tour, Chuck decided against it in the last minute. The other members in the band went on the tour without him using the name "Death". They got Louie Carrisalez (Rotting Corpse, Devastation) to fill in on vocals.
After the tour they were all fired and Chuck took them to court. This was allegedly the reason why Chuck never played with a stable lineup and started using studio musicians.
