Neal Preston's comments about Stevie

I'd have to agree about that photo shoot being magical - those beach shots are some of my faves!

Neal Preston is my ABSOLUTE favorite Stevie photogropher. Of course we all love Worthington, I don't think many of his photo's compare to the ones Neal's taken. Maybe I just feel that way because I've always prefered Live shots. :shrug:

Thank you for posting that, it was a fun read. I like how he says that pic of Stevie with the glasses is the most like her.
Back in 1982, that would have been a surprise to her fans because she hardly ever spoke onstage, and certainly was cultivating her image in that serious mode.
Christine mentioned once that she had a tremendous sense of humor, but I think most of that was just behind the scenes. And I have to say I loved the CV DVD when her sense of humour was really evident. Stevie would be a fun person to hang with!!

I never realized Neal took the beach photo. I always thought it was Herbie.

and I thought these were for Playboy, not People? :shrug:

It is likely both magazines use the same photog source. My pictures were often taken by a freelance who quasi worked for about 10 different agencies/companies. So, maybe that is it. But, they were in Rolling Stone as well, I think.

I am pretty sure by that time she could command to keep the rights to her sessions. Maybe AL shared rights with her, but, then again, she is AL.

The second picture was indeed used in People magazine. The date given of 1982 is wrong because the article it accompanied is from 1981.

I'm linking to these pictures, simply because some of them are damned big:

Now we just need an explanation for that strange picture of Stevie standing in that steep-incline railway car, if you know which one I am talking about.

My absolute favorite photoshoot ever. I've blown up three of them and they're hanging on my living room wall.

Loved reading the comments. Interesting to know that the glasses pic was taken the same day as those others.

gypsywoman 08-04-2007 08:48 AM

I'll take a picture when I get home in a few hours, I'm still at work.

thanks for posting. I always thought that Neal's work with Stevie began much later than 1982. I do love the comments about the pics. Very interesting!

These are ALL awesome!!! Thanks for sharing! I also thought these were taken on the beach.. :woohoo:

Has anyone seen the two unreleased videos for Edge Of Seventeen? Very cheesy cheap production, mostly of her (with Laurie and Sharon) badly lip-synching the song against a simple black background. But the best part in one of the versions is a little snippit at the end. It shows Stevie walking along the beach, with the ocean right there, in her classic black "witch" dress. It's so incongruous yet stunning.

yes. I think I have about 7 versions of that video.

my favorite is the one that starts with her speaking "and the days go by..." and then she looks up from inside the picture frame (lol...80s) and starts singing. and I love when she runs down the stairs and Chris shakes her...but yeah, that last scene is the best.

michelle2677 08-10-2007 11:57 AM

speaking of edge of 17-does anyone have just an audio of the edge stevie had on her crystal visions dvd? (the one where she's dancing) it think it's an early demo, but I loved it.

(sorry off topic of the original post, but i didnt' want to start a new thread :o )
