2003 Gavin Martin Interview Audio

[michelej1]

I'm not sure if this audio interview has already circulated. I'd seen print quotes from this interview but I'd never heard it before now.

She says the first 6 months of recording SYW were "dreamy." It was just her, Lindsey, Mick, John and Ray. That was so much fun and calming after 9/11. But it was after that, the 6 month period, that things began to get strained and serious.

Stevie talks about Illume, waking up to hear about 9/11. Says she hadn't really experienced Vietnam, never knew anyone who went and avoided movies about it, so she was never political until now.

Interviewer tells Stevie Lindsey claims she never thanked him for his work on the album and she is surprised.

Discusses her and Lindsey dating Sally and David and only getting together when they fired their band.

Discusses her, Christine and Mick being the big cocaine users. Christine leaving.

Talks about getting breast implants in December 1976 because her hips were big and she wanted to balance her figure out. She says now people who are naturally endowed don't stand out, because everyone has big breasts. Pamela Anderson will be sorry when she's in her sixties for her implants.

Says she wouldn't have wanted to have kids after the age of 40 and that Madonna waited until later in her career.

Thank you very much that was such a great interview!! I loved how candid she was...it definitely answered some questions! And I never thought I'd say this because I wasn't sure at first but after listening to this interview I'm pretty sure I'm sinking into shipperdom ! I just get a sort of squealy like feeling whenever she talks about Lindsey...I can't explain it

i was always under the impression that Chris wasn't a big coke user. you never hear about Christine all skied up. just Stevie and Mick. John took to the bottle and so did Lindsey. Christine was just a wino lmao!

I think it's sweet when she says she loves what Lindsey writes just because its his and it expresses what he needs to say. She says he feels the same way.

I don't think that's true, but I think it's a touching thing to say. Michele

[MacMan]

This is awesome... Never heard it before.

Thanks for posting this. Stevie provides some further insight into the Say You Will period.

Thanks for posting Michele. That really was great to listen to being that it was almost 40 mins of just Stevie answering pretty pointed questions.


And it was definetly an I heart LB time period. Then again the interviewer kept bringing him up. Not that I think Stevie would ever not talk about him.
