Conversation Tapes
 

In a fit of boredom, I attempted to transcribe the conversation or limo tapes. For those of you who don't know, it's conversations among Stevie, Christine, Mick, and a few others. The bulk is mostly Stevie, Christine, and Mick. If anyone would like to help me get the whole transcribed, corrected, etc, it would be appreciated. I have the whole first part done and maybe it's correct.


Part I 5:21

Straight Back plays.

S. Nicks – “Is that the cassette I have?”
Male Voice – “Yes.”
S. Nicks – “That sounds good.”
Male Voice – “Yeah.”
C. McVie – *Not sure what Christine says*
S. Nicks – “I played it for Robin, and she loved it. I was going to leave it with her until last night. I said, ‘You’re not going to listen to this tonight. Are you? You’re tired.”
Female Voice – “Indian giver.”
S. Nicks – “I can tell. I'm taking this back.”
M. Fleetwood – “I'm taking this with me.”
S. Nicks – “I said, ‘I’ll bring it to you tomorrow.”
C. McVie - "Anyway, you gotta listen to this it's uh..."
S. Nicks - "...of Lindsey singing Hold Me?"
C. McVie - "Lindsey singing Hold Me...
S. Nicks – “I'll never forgive you if you let Lindsey sing one of your songs and not me.”
C. McVie – “No, no. The thing is he's gonna sing it, and I’m gonna sing it longer.”
S. Nicks – “That's it! It's over!”
C. McVie - “No, no, no…Stevie...”
S. Nicks – “You heard it…(singing) It’s over…it’s over…it’s over like it never was before.”
C. McVie – “No, Stevie. I’ve got a song for you. You’ve got a song for me. Lindsey’s got a song for me. Lindsey’s got a song for you. You have a song for Lindsey.”
S. Nicks – “They got a song for us.”
Male Voice #2 – “This has totally destroyed my decision.”
S. Nicks – “Does anybody got any pot? The reason that we actually came in was because…”
C. McVie – “There’s always Hold Me. You can always rely on me.”
Male Voice – “Stevie, the timing was perfect when you---it was great.”
S. Nicks – “Oh, I’ll give you a little.”
Sara Recor – “I’ve never wanted to watch The Hustle.”
S. Nicks – “I was actually sitting there looking at all this stuff.”
S. Recor – “Bargaining power…”
S. Nicks – “We walk in, right? Here’s Robin, right?
C. McVie – “What about the Hold Me?”
S. Nicks – “She’s up, walking around in my old pink nightgown…like an old woman, right? She’s doing all this stuff, right? And I said, ‘Robin.’ I said to Sara, ‘She really is sick. Notice the tube that’s hanging down with the blood in it.” And she looks down and she goes, ‘There isn’t supposed to be blood in that tube.’ And both Sara and I go, (facial expression) When I said, “Look at the tube with the blood.”
Sara Recor – “Oh…”
S. Nicks – “Robin looks down, and she’s moving furniture around. She goes, ‘There’s not supposed to be blood in that tube. Sara and I go, (facial expression)
S. Recor – “Where’s the nurse button?”
S. Nicks – “Where’s the nurse pers--, right? I mean…we go crazy!”
C. McVie – “Well, that was good though.”
S. Nicks – “Well, no. It was just that…it just leaked.”
S. Recor – “No. Robin’s going, ‘Girls…this happens all the time.

Music plays…

S. Nicks – “It’s like you are. You become very…”
S. Recor – “Hi, Mick.”
S. Nicks – “They took our temperature. Mick, listen to this. Hypochondriacs unite. They have an electric temperature thing. They put it in your mouth, and it goes like dadada, and then it goes bzzz. And they take it out, right. Robin Snyder, Stevie Nicks, and Sara Recor except for her being one point off we all had the same temperature exactly. The nurse went, ‘They’re sick. They shouldn’t be in here.’ And we’re going, ‘We’re not sick! We’re fine!”
C. McVie – “That’s a sure fire---they should be in here.”
S. Nicks – “We had the same…we were running exactly the same fever that Robin was running. I mean let’s hear it for sympathy temperatures.”
C. McVie – “Hey…listen. Sit down. You'll be running a higher temperature when you hear Lindsey singing this song.”
S. Nicks – “Alright. Okay. I'm going to give you, Ken…”
K. Caillat– “Yes?”
S. Nicks – “Do you have a little…I’ll only pull the boot out if you…”
K. Caillat– “Some very strong grass…”
S. Nicks – “Squeeze…let me see if I can find out.”
C. McVie – “Oooooh….Oooooooh…”
K. Caillat – “This is guaranteed to keep you up another hour.”
S. Nicks – “No, it’s not ‘cause it’s not that kind of coke, and there’s not that much.”
K. Caillat – “What did you say man?”
S. Nicks – “Let me just dump it. I'm just gonna have to put a little of this out. This isn’t…This is not Stevie coke.”
M. Fleetwood – “The perfect tuning on the…”
K. Caillat – “Everything else is…”
C. McVie – “No.”
C. McVie – “You should be living in the Bahamas.”
S. Recor – “Thanks.”
K. Caillat – “I could put my hand in there.”
M. Fleetwood – “I saw it.”
C. McVie – “No, it’s got exactly what it needs right there. It says so… It feels *unsure.*
So when are you gonna make a respectable man outta this guy, Sara?”
S. Recor – “I’ve been trying for 3…”
S. Nicks (singing) – “Respectable…that’s what you are respectable…in your fiftenn cars…so neglectable…”
K. Caillat – “Sara, I could give you some…”
C. McVie – “So neglectable…”
S. Nicks – “Effectible. You could do a great poem…effectible…neglectable…sorry. So Robin is chipper as a bird. She---you know what happened today? Her doctor…her little Japanese doctor comes in right. She’s sweet like Judy right. Imagine your leukemia doctor Judy Wong.”
S. Recor – “Naughty (spelling?)”
S. Nicks – “Her name is Dr. Naughty, and then she has Dr. Wolff. We’re going, ‘Okay, Robin. We got it…’ She comes in and she goes, ‘You notice any loss of hair?’ And Robin goes, ‘No.’ Right. She goes, ‘No…doesn’t look terrific but no.’ She goes, ‘Nothing? No?” And she goes, ‘No.’ And see she’s into…she finished with the heavy chemo days ago. She’s into the part where it should be coming out in globs.”
C. McVie – “And it’s out?”
S. Recor – “No. Nothing.”
S. Nicks – “And you know what she said? I never seen this before.”
M. Fleetwood – “Whoa.”
C. McVie – “Okay. I assume…”
S. Nicks – “You know what, I said, ‘It’s a miracle. Forget it. I accept it. There’s a miracle happening here, and she’s gonna get well. I know she is.”
C. McVie – “Listen…listen. If you can imagine Lindsey singing one of my songs…”
S. Nicks – “No, I can’t imagine. I can imagine me singing all of…any of your songs.”
C. McVie – “It’s great. It’s just a rough.”

I gotta get me some Stevie coke!

Thats a lot of ppl in one limo

Chris

These people are insanely funny. Even in the face of a lot of sadness. What fun they all must have had. This is exactly like the nutty assed conversations that happen with my crazy rock and roll friends. And we are not even doing coke anymore.

I know, really! Thanks for transcribing that, NicksIllume. I've never heard it!

"S. Nicks – “Does anybody got any pot? The reason that we actually came in was because…” :laugh: :laugh:
Yep.

Much more to come! I'm working on Part II when they're actually in the limo.

Thank goodness! :xoxo:

Part II of the conversations is absurdly long. Here's part of it. Excuse the misspellings of names and such.

Conversation Tapes Part II 6:38

S. Nicks – “An air force base, and she was riveting nails in an airplane.”
C. McVie – “Why did she stick her hair up?”
S. Nicks – “Well, usually she had it up, and this day it came down. And it got part of it stuck and so they had to cut like this much.”
C. McVie – “What happened to that guy that had all his hair severed off by something?”
M. Fleetwood – “Oh…Shawn Phillips.”
C. McVie – “Shawn Phillips…yeah.”
M. Fleetwood – “On a yacht. Got it caught in a winch.”
C. McVie – “He ended up with a…”
S. Nicks – “In a circle…you mean like this type of a thing?”
C. McVie – “He ended up with a short back and sides that he did not want.”
S. Nicks – “Oh no…Oh no.”
M. Fleetwood – “He had very long blonde hair that Shawn Phillips (S. Nicks – “Oh…poor thing.”) right down past his bottom.
C. McVie – “It was really…”
S. Nicks – “Ooh…what did he do? That’s a familiar name.”
M. Fleetwood – “Shawn Phillips.”
C. McVie – “I think he was on a boat or something.”
S. Nicks – “What does he do? I don’t…”
M. Fleetwood – “not folk singery. J.C., would you care to explain?”
S. Nicks – “J.C.”
C. McVie – “Would you care to explain precisely…”
M. Fleetwood – “Shawn Phillips…Jerry Levine used to go ‘round with.”
J.C. – “Shawn Phillips was a…”
S. Nicks – “Was...don’t say was. Was is a good word.”
M. Fleetwood – “Is.”
J.C. is explaining, but it’s too muffled for my ears.
C. McVie – “Well, he still is, but he hasn’t got any hair.”
M. Fleetwood – “He lives in Italy.”
S. Nicks – “Those are horrible shoes.”
M. Fleetwood – “Aren’t they nice?”
S. Nicks – “No, they’re horrible.”
J.C. is still explaining.
C. McVie – “I thought that we were in the unhappy…”
S. Nicks – “Chris, this is why I came to this car. I couldn’t stand…”
M. Fleetwood – “You keep quiet over there. J.C.”
S. Nicks (whispering) – “Chrissy…”
C. McVie – “No one’s that interested.”
S. Nicks (still whispering) – “Chrissy…”
S. Nicks – “I couldn’t let you go in this car by yourself…unhappy. So I came in this car so that you would be cheered up not that I'm doing a thrilling job but…at least, you know, we’re smiling.
C. McVie – “Oh great. Oh fine.”
S. Nicks – “You just keep your mouth shut about your unhappiness. She's happy. I’m happy. We're happy. At least, the girls are happy.”
C. McVie – “The girls are...I’m…I’m halfway to being drunk.”
S. Nicks – “Chris, it's okay because I’m trying to catch up with you, and I knew you'd share your drink with me. I always steal her drink onstage. She looks at me as I go. She goes...”
C. McVie – “I know. I say…”
S. Nicks – “She goes, ‘Well, there it goes once again.”
C. McVie – “That champagne is about all you’ll get out of me. I'm used to it.”
M. Fleetwood - “Did you really go and have photographs taken in the hall last night or was I imagining?”
S. Nicks – “I never left my room last night. I watched a movie.”
M. Fleetwood – “J.C., what was that?”
J.C. – “Didn't you say you were going to go downstairs with your sequined outfit on and have photographs taken?”
S. Nicks – “I never left my room last night. I watched...you know what I did last night...what did I do last night?”
M. Fleetwood – “Stevie got very aggressive on the phone.”
J.C. – “You said get Dwayne up...”
S. Nicks – “No, I called you up.”
M. Fleetwood – “No, you didn't call me up.”
S. Nicks- “I did call you up!”
M. Fleetwood – “No, you called J.C. up to talk to Dwayne.”
S. Nicks – “You're kidding me.”
S. Nicks – “No, I did call you up late.”
M. Fleetwood – “No, no. Let me recap.”
S. Nicks – “No, I did call you up late and ask you where he was 'cause I wanted to talk to him.”
C. McVie – “I got to tell you what Sam Emerson did. Did you hear what Sam Emerson did?”
M. Fleetwood – “Well, I can imagine.”
C. McVie – “Well, aside from being...”
S. Nicks – “Sam...what else could he be?”
C. McVie – “Well, Sam you know...he left my room at five or si--..five in the morning.
Mick clears his throat.
S. Nicks – “Hmm-mmm...”
C. McVie – “There were several other people there.”
S. Nicks – “Yeah really. Why wasn't I there?”
C. McVie – “I don't know why you weren't there. I think you were...”
S. Nicks – “I wish you had called me up. I was bored stiff.”
C. McVie – “I think you were on the bord…border of suicide or something.”
S. Nicks – “I was laying in my bed watching television.”
C. McVie - “Anyway, he goes outta my room to his own room.”
M. Fleetwood– “Really?”
C. McVie – “Lays down on---this is what he told me the next morning...He was so loaded that night.”
M. Fleetwood – “Got a hard on.”
C. McVie – “No, Mick.”
S. Nicks – “Oh, shut up.”

To be continued...

THank you so much. Gosh, I would sure love to hear everyone's voice! Amazing...

Thank you, this is entertaining. :wavey:

To hear this interview is funny. To see it all transcribed is almost funnier. :laugh:

That really is just classic. It lets you be a fly on the wall.

-Lis

Christ, my IQ just dropped 12 points after reading all that. :laugh:

I send kudos to whoever had the stomach to not only listen to that swill once, but to transcribe it, too. My hat is off to you, babe. :laugh:

The rest of part II. Excuse it if it's not transcribed to full detail. It's hard to document incessant, pointless rambling and arguing.

Conversation Tapes Part II (continued) 6:38

M. Fleetwood – “If you can keep us on the straight and narrow, we'll be fine. Now, let me recap.”
S. Nicks – “Oh, I know what it was...I wanted to know where I could send my clothes out to be pressed. It was very important!”
M. Fleetwood – “No, no that was part of it.”
S. Nicks – “That was a big part of it.”
M. Fleetwood – “The biggest part of it...(S. Nicks – “How would you know? I hung up on you!) was what J.C. told me.
S. Nicks – “You were worthless.”
J.C. – “Your sequined gown.”
S. Nicks – “I don't have a sequined gown!”
M. Fleetwood – “He said…J.C. turned round to me and said, ‘I don't believe this. She’s on the phone. She’s out of her brain.”
S. Nicks – “I was not out of my brain!”
M. Fleetwood – “Let me finish. Let me finish.”
C. McVie - “Are you bull****ting with me?”
M. Fleetwood – “This is true.”
S. Nicks – “He's totally bull****ting, Chris.”
M. Fleetwood – “Alright. I'm totally bull****ting.”
S. Nicks – “Tuck was there. Robin was there. Chrissy was there.”
M. Fleetwood – “Shh. Shh.”
S. Nicks – “Bull****ting.”
M. Fleetwood – “Alright, bull****ting.”
S. Nicks – “I watched cartoons.”
M. Fleetwood – “Then J.C. is must have been making up the story but nonetheless this is the story.”
S. Nicks – “I never talked to J.C.!”
M. Fleetwood – “Yes, you did! That means you are definitely out to lunch!”
S. Nicks – “J.C. didn’t answer!”
M. Fleetwood – “You did talk to J.C.!”
J.C. gets more into the argument.
M. Fleetwood – “Oh for goodness sake!”
S. Nicks – “Oh late at night. They told me you were very busy….very, very busy. Okay, well…I didn’t want to bother you.”
M. Fleetwood – “Look, let me tell the story to Christine.”
S. Nicks – “Okay!”
M. Fleetwood – “J.C. was talking to you for maybe two…two and a half minutes…”
S. Nicks – “When?”
M. Fleetwood – “He turned ‘round to me, and I was sitting next to him. I caught the general gist of it. He said, ‘I don’t believe this.’ You were insisting upon Dwayne going up to your room, and the reason being was to escort Kay Delongpre.”
S. Nicks – “Oh! I was only kidding!”
M. Fleetwood – “Shh! Let me finish!”
J.C. – “Catherine of Aragon…”
S. Nicks – “Katherine Delongpre.”

There’s so much talking going on that I cannot catch everything. Placement was hard to do in the next part.

M. Fleetwood – “Yes…in a red wig, with lipstick, all the trimmings. And you want to go down the lobby and have a photograph session with Sam Emerson.”
S. Nicks – “We were only kidding! Not with Sam. I didn’t even know Sam was here.”
M. Fleetwood – “Well, it was believable in the circumstances.”
S. Nicks – “Well, that’s because we’ve talked about it so many times…about Kay Delongpre.”
M. Fleetwood – “I merely…when I got on the phone I merely…”
S. Nicks – “Kay Delongpre fading away. (I don’t know) and Flomingo…bedecked in jewels…rhinestones…”
M. Fleetwood – “See, now she's starting…”
S. Nicks – “…bracelets...down in the lobby 50 years old looking for action…”
C. McVie – “Well, you got her going now…You know how she is…”
M. Fleetwood – “See, it’s all true. It’s all true.”
S. Nicks - “Totally kidding. The four of us…totally kidding.”
C. McVie – “Were you kidding or were you out of it?”
S. Nicks – “Totally kidding. No, I was not out of it. Totally kidding.”
M. Fleetwood – “Well…alright if you were...”
S. Nicks – “Looking for somebody to tell me how to get this out to be pressed because there’s no…”
M. Fleetwood – “Hang on, hang on, hang on. The fact of the matter was we were in the middle of most…”
S. Nicks – “Well, I didn’t know.”
M. Fleetwood – “Most important decisions…”
S. Nicks – “Why didn’t you tell me then?”
M. Fleetwood – “J.C. did really tell you that and said, ‘Dwayne is busy and Dwayne is making travel arrangements on the other phone.’”
S. Nicks – “Alright! And I called the assistant…”
M. Fleetwood – “And you said, ‘**** that. I want to talk to him now and then I got on the phone.”
Stevie and Mick talking at the same time and still arguing.
C. McVie – “Can we have one voice at a time please?”
M. Fleetwood – “It's impossible. She won't stop.”
S. Nicks – “Mick, I called you later. I called the assistant manager asked him where I could send clothes in the morning.”
M. Fleetwood – “Deranged...she was drunk.”
S. Nicks – “And he told me the clothes went out. It was all perfectly done without your help. Thank you very much, and everything was fine and that’s the only thing I wanted. Period.”
M. Fleetwood – “Well, that’s what you said. You won’t phone me up again if you need any help.”
S. Nicks – “That’s right. That’s exactly what I meant. I wouldn’t.”
M. Fleetwood – “And all I was doing was explaining that Dwayne was on the other phone, and he would phone you back.
S. Nicks – “Well, everybody always tells us don’t do anything. Right, Chris? Don’t do anything without asking us.”
M. Fleetwood – “But you were saying you were going down the lobby…”
S. Nicks – “Nope.”
M. Fleetwood – “We understood it alright.”
S. Nicks – “Oh, Mick. I was only kidding. C’mon.”
M. Fleetwood – “You were joking. Alright, you were only kidding.”
S. Nicks – “I don't ever go anywhere by myself. Not even to the market!”
M. Fleetwood – “Well, it was quite forceful at this point.”
C. McVie – “I'm wondering…this is supposed to be world turning not the world ending. Turn the tape off.”
M. Fleetwood – “No, I will not turn the tape off!”
C. McVie – “So, I mean besides all that…what was the point?”

Conversation Tapes Part III 2:56

C. McVie – “Is it possible to say anything in this car without somebody else saying something else at the same time?”
M. Fleetwood – “Exactly.”
S. Nicks – “I’m sorry, Chris. I should have gone...”
C. McVie – “Not specify any names...”
S. Nicks – “Chris, I shoulda gone in the other car.”
M. Fleetwood – “It's what's known as decorum.”
S. Nicks – “I’m sorry next time the other car.”
John says something, and you cannot hear him. Shocking, right?
S. Nicks – “You did, John. I'm sorry. You were right. John from now on you’re right. I was wrong. I admit that.”
John mutters.
S. Nicks – “Lovely town…nice church…drop me off here. My mother always said I’d end up in a convent.”
M. Fleetwood- “Stevie.”
Snickering from Christine and Mick.
S. Nicks – “No comment from you, Fleetwood.”
M. Fleetwood – “I—well…”
S. Nicks – “That’s a nice little (don’t know) there.”
M. Fleetwood – “Of course, I'm completely sane.”
S. Nicks – “Yeah…uh-huh…”
C. McVie – “Yeah, really. I was just thinking though…”
S. Nicks – “Now, you’re the nice…”
M. Fleetwood – “J.C. understands completely.”
S. Nicks – “Look…what a weird place. Where are we?”
C. McVie - “J.C.’s about the only one that does. I never know anything that is going on in this damn band.”
S. Nicks – “Christine and I have never understood you guys...obviously.”
C. McVie– “Mind you, I’ve gotten to the point where I don't really want to know.”
M. Fleetwood – “No, You know no more or no less than you ever have...”
C. McVie – “Would you mind just not talking while I’m trying to say something?”
M. Fleetwood – “I apologize, Chris.”
C. McVie – “Damnit! Not that it was that important.”
S. Nicks – “Chris, I don’t think it was important for him to say please.”
J.C. says something.
C. McVie – “What? Who? J.C.?”
S. Nicks – “That’s alright. Mick is wearing the worst shoes I've ever seen in my whole life.”
M. Fleetwood- “I thought you'd like them.”
S. Nicks – “Where'd you pick those up anyway? Capezio?”
M. Fleetwood – “Hmm? Nah, I didn't return them from the rental.”
S. Nicks – “Where’s his costume?”
J.C. – “They do look little bit, you know.”
S. Nicks – “That’s so awful, Mick.”
M. Fleetwood – “Now, if you just all relax and think of the long term policy.”
S. Nicks – “Yeah, those won’t long term.”
M. Fleetwood – “These shoes go perfectly with my jacket.”
S. Nicks – “Oh, I bet they do.”
M. Fleetwood – “And theses shoes will be even more perfect when they’re all worn and dirty.”
S. Nicks – “Good. In a couple years drop by…”
C. McVie – “They go very well with the cassette player. I’ll say that.”
M. Fleetwood – “The cassette player and they go well with…”

S. Nicks – “One of my friends looked at this right. They said, ‘Did you have this put on your own?’ I can’t---Did you give this to yourself?’ And said, ‘For the good and bad thoughts for the many months to come.’ And this friend of mine said, ‘God, that’s pretty morbid, isn’t it?’ And I went, ‘Yeah, it is actually.’
M. Fleetwood – “Ah…thank you.”
S. Nicks – “He coulda thought of something more cheerful to say…for the good and bad thoughts.”
C. McVie – “At least, on his own.”
S. Nicks – “Yeah…at least to yourself. You coulda put for the great days ahead.”
M. Fleetwood – “Greg failed to put something different on my cassette. I had something different. Obviously, I'm going to give myself a present.”
S. Nicks – “You should’ve ‘cause that’s the pits.”
C. McVie – “Yours is just for the good thoughts ahead.”
S. Nicks – “That’s really…blame Greg.”
M. Fleetwood – “No, this is actually what I said for everyone else but…”
S. Nicks – “Blame little, sweet Greg who tries very hard to be sweet and loving and wonderful. Blame him.”
M. Fleetwood – “Alright. I’ll play that to him.”

Stevie has done it for thirty years, dear. :laugh:

Thanks for posting these. :woohoo:

THank you. Seriously, who has this? I need it. I must have it!!!! :)

Yes, I know. Forget her Queen of Rock and Roll title...she's the queen of rambling. I've never known anyone with such a knack of saying the exact same thing in 15 million different ways. Of course, that's one of the reasons we love the woman.

The end of the conversations as far as I know...


Conversation Tapes Part IV 19 seconds

S. Nicks – “Old bean body…A graveyard. I love graveyards, and we try running into a lot of them. Lindsey loves graveyards.”
C. McVie – “You mind if I don’t do this interview tonight.”

Conversation Tapes Part V 40 seconds

S. Nicks – “Super snow white hair…French…real neat…real interesting right…like Castilian…uh kind of…uh…uh…uh New Orleans sort of. And it was incredible. Robin and I walked in, and we’re going you know kind of Leslie Caron and Gigi. And all these ladies are going…looking at us with these blank stares.”
C. McVie – “Was there a baby?”
J.C. – “It was you that went to the hairdresser this morning.”
S. Nicks – “Me because yes…”
J.C. – “Yeah. Okay.”
M. Fleetwood – “She knew she was going.”
S. Nicks – “I knew I was going.”
J.C. – “You had been lying in there for 5 days.”
S. Nicks – “That’s right, and it was a wreck like me. And it was very funny and I wish I thought to myself…”

Obviously, I have it. :)

Lol!!
 

Lindsey loves graveyards.

Interesting.

>>C. McVie – “Would you mind just not talking while I’m trying to say >>something?”
>>M. Fleetwood – “I apologize, Chris.”
>>C. McVie – “Damnit! Not that it was that important.”

Just this snippet alone is so funny. It's the WAY Chris says stuff that makes it hilarious. The quietly furious "God DAMmit...!" and then the pause...and then the completely casual, "Not that it was that important." ROTFLMAO.

IMO if this was a typical travel experience, then it is astonishing this band lasted one month, let alone all the years they did. I mean, yes, it's funny to us to hear, but imagine the reality of those car rides, day after day after day. It boggles the mind. It boggles mine, at least.

Wasn't there a spot at the end where Chris asks if Star Trek is on that night? :laugh:

-Lis

Wow, thanks for transcribing this! I know it must have taken forever!

That is one of my favourite parts. The way they most likely survived was having Stevie ride in a separate limo. I love the way Christine says things the way she does. It makes the tapes for me. I don't have that. Are my tapes different than yours? Hmm...

okay, how do i get it from you?

Well, but people talk nonstop like that when they're coked out... :shrug:

That's great! I can't imagine transcribing that. I remember when I first listened to it - I laughed my ass off.

I especially like the part where Christine asks Micks to turn the recorder off. She's really annoyed throughout the entire thing. You could tell he was really annoyed because he's like "NO, I will NOT turn it off!"

So funny.

i can send it to you amber if u like
:)

I kno i havent posted much yet but can you please send this to me? [email protected] or [email protected] . thanks a lot!!! this cracks me up to no end!!!!


Love Sara Elizabeth

Probably not. I think she says that really in the background while Mick is sort of the one that is mainly talking; it's not easily heard.

I also love the part when she is telling them about Sam Emerson leaving her room at 5 AM, and both M and S make those 'Mmhmmm....' noises and C says indignantly, "There were other people *there*...." She is funny without even meaning to be funny. And Mick also, with his snotty upper crust 'It's called decorum' line, oh my god, I am laughing just typing it.

If I were JC I would have driven that car right off the edge of a cliff or something.

-Lis

:) hold that thought, i've gotten another very kind offer. Thanks, sweetheart! :xoxo:

This was too funny. It should be sold and labeled as "What cocaine does to your brain"! Of course, Stevie is like that coked up or clean, God love her. I think that's one of the things I've always loved about her-she loves to talk and she rambles as much as I do! :)

Could I please have this convo sent to me,
[email protected]
It sounds hilarious

Cheers,

>>C. McVie – “No, it’s got exactly what it needs right there. It says so… It feels *unsure.*

The word you have 'unsure' for was 'stroft', by the way. I think this word was sort of 'made up' by Chris, she used it in the 1976 group interview; John said C's voice was "strong but soft" and she then said --combining those two words---"Stroft."

:) Just an obsessive detail that I happen to know.

BTW thank you so much for typing that all out; I am printing out a copy and will keep it w/ my CD.

Thanks so much. What I have of the convos starts at the last part you posted. About the French thing and goes from there.
And you know I have always thought about transcribing the convos between Sara Fleetwood and Beverlee Vance. Some very interesting things said during that. Maybe that will be my next project. :rolleyes:

I thought it sounded like that, but I didn't know if she was slurring. You might want to check me throughout the transcription. I think I have several gaps in some places.

I love interviews of Christine...her humour, her voice...I could listen all day. I'm a little partial to the songbird if you can't tell.

If anyone wants me to mail it to them send me a PM with your address. On the CD it also has a phone call recorded of Stevie and a fan talking.

My eyes glazed over much before I could get to the end, but I was (pleasantly) surprised to see how well they were all still getting along. I'd always thought there was a lot of bitterness toward Stevie in particular around this time, because of her solo success, but I guess at least Mick and Chris were able to get past that. Of course, Lindsey is noticeably absent. :)

Lmao!!
 

Thank you so much for the transcription.......it has given me at least 10 minutes of extreme pleasure during a very boring day.... :blob1:

NicksIllume, thanks for transcribing that CD. :) It's kind of hard to hear all of what they're saying just by listening to the CD since they talk over each other alot. You must have a lot of time on your hands. :D

Thanks for that!

Where was Lindsey in all of this?? Visiting a graveyard perhaps? :laugh:

Wasn't Lindsey sick at the time. I thought that fact was mentioned in one of the CDs. Christine asked what do they tell the press about LB's condition.
Maybe that's another tape. :confused:
