Did Stevie really have "solo status" up until the release of Street Angel? I was under the impression mainstream culture had dubbed her a has-been long before that point. I don't think she fit the mainstream musical landscape of that era at all, and I honestly doubt Street Angel would've sold very well no matter what the quality of its contents had been. It just wasn't her time, period.
