Yes, he did say that. Also, she almost never mentioned Ken in those ITM interviews. She always said that ITM was really her & her nephew.

I wonder what Ken didn't like about the production. Did he say anywhere? I personally wish there was more of an emphasis on Christine's keyboards/piano on the album. Although I think it sounds fine the way it is, I think they missed an opportunity to showcase her playing. For instance I'd love to hear "Calumny" accompanied by grand piano.
If Chris and Dan rejected some or all of Ken's ideas for the album, I can understand why he might be holding a (little tiny) grudge. I haven't been reading his thread on the other board but it doesn't sound like he has any huge animosity toward her.

If she didn't like his ideas then you can undestand why he might be a bit miffed especially as she probably wasn't overly gentle in the way she told him "Ken, that's a f**kin stupid idea" Gail |

I had no idea Ken was unhappy with the final mix of the record. I have no idea why. It's clear, clean, and prominently features her voice. Maybe she called in Ken thinking she'd need him only to discover she didn't.
Wow. Drama! |

Is that article the one where she said something about being weirded out by female fans? There was one where she said she found it weird that she had all of these "female groupies" lining up for her, but "not sexually - thank god!" Chris didn't do much cocaine though, did she? I always thought she was more about pot and alcohol. |

Huh. I thought it was just Stevie that had a hole in her nose.

Okay, I *KNOW* you've seen the Tusk Documentary. She was completely blitzed during the entire thing. I just LOOOVE the scene where she was playing Never Make Me Cry, was completely hammered, and kept rambling about how she respected the "other musicians" .

Funny that with smoking and nose holes, Christine's voice hasn't deteriorated over the years. It was deeper on ITM, but I didn't get the impression that she's lost range.
Of course, some of you musicians would notice her singing in a lower key than she normally would have and things like that. It wouldn't be apparent to me. I just thought her voice was full, pure, rich. I didn't think she was straining or cracking at all. And she sounded good for The Dance too. Michele |

On the graph of her range... her voice to my ears has gone up instead of down over the lifespan... listen to "Lonely without you BabY" to Everywhere..... Her voice is brighter and higher... I thought on the Dance she was scraping the top end of her range on Songs like Songbird.... but overall I think she's solid...

"It has taken 10 years for everyone to get back on speaking terms. After the band split in 1987, its members pursued solo careers, until last summer, when a three Million-selling reunion album, The Dance, was followed by a sold-out US tour. The album won them three Grammy nominations, including Best Pop LP; the winners will be announced on February 25. All were in fine fettle on the tour, helped, Nicks says in her California-by-way-of-Phoenix whisper, by the fact that they are drug-free now. She hasn't touched anything for 12 years, since her doctor explained to her the damage a million dollars'worth of coke had done after daily ingestion for 15 years. 'Here, give me your pen." She leans over and makes a little sketch of two noses. "That's the hole in Chris's nose and that's the hole in my nose The first is a tiny dot, the other the size of a 10p piece. "You could put a big gold ring through my septum. It affects my eyes, my sinuses. It was a lot of fun for a long time, because we didn't know it was bad. But eventually it gets hold of you and all you can think about is where your next line is coming from." One 28-day stay in rehab in 1985 was sufficient to straighten her out. She was so "horrified" by the body search she was forced to undergo when she arrived at the Betty Ford Clinic that she resolved on the spot never to do coke again."
Stevie Nicks interview in The Guardian newspaper, 1998.
