Yes...that’s how I remembered it. On the 1987 tour she was fine.....saw a slow decline on the OSOTM tour and BTM tour. When I met her after a Street Angel show she was out of it....but she sure sounded good that night. |

She was off klonopin when Street Angel was released. She had a huge accident and finally got help towards the end of recording Street Angel. When she got out of a long rehab she finished the album.

I believe it was December 1993 when Stevie fell in her living room and bashed her head into the fireplace. It was the catalyst for her friends (who where there) to finally speak up and get her to rehab. I guess it was her "rock bottom" moment (pardon the pun).
I cant imagine for the life of me what a Streel Angel tour would have been like if she had not cleaned up. 1994 was the first tour in 20 years that she was not on some substance while performing live. Her hair was fried, her waist bigger, but supposedly clean as a whistle.

Did she fire any of those friends from her life? Addicts often do... Do you know who there were?

Years later she softened the story claiming she asked Mike Campbell to take one of her klonopin doses and he was so wiped out that he urged her to get help. So not sure if the Mike Campbell story came before or after the fall. She also stated kicking tranqulizers was brutal as you can imagine being hooked for so many years. Her hair turned grey and her skin shed like a snake. All of this is my paraphrasing and article from 1998. After rehab she pissed off her producer and brought Waddy in to play guitar over songs and Sheia E's brother to do percussion while her producer was in England. She claims she did not have time to fix the record properly and it was already overdue because of her rehab. Edit: Here is the article. One part I forgot is after she gashed her head open on the fireplace....she never felt a thing! (now that's some serious drug) https://people.com/archive/high-priestess-vol-49-no-2/

It was Glenn Parrish. Not Mike Campbell.
