Asher's impression of Wilson was of "the single most irresponsible person" he had ever met, remembering that there were uncashed royalty checks of up to $100,000 scattered around Wilson's house. He later called Wilson a "genius musician but an amateur human being". In 2013, he said that he "didn’t mean that in the way it came out" and explained: "We all have areas of things we’re good at and things we’re not so good at, but his is so zeroed-in on music." Asher was particularly effusive about the way Wilson "huntfor a chord change ... the [same way some of us type."
