Yes I remember him saying LB was trying to go easier on Stevie during that time. I don't remember the marionette part, but will trust your memory on that one.
I'd have to dig out my copy of his first book (and it's too late and I'm too tired!) but he did also say somewhere in there that in the studio Lindsey could be a martinet. Merriam Webster defines martinet as "a person who is very strict and demands obedience from others". I remember it because I thought it was a much cleverer way of saying yeah he could be a real a-hole. I don't recall now if he was talking about the making of one particular album or just generally speaking. I was always curious whether that was Mick's word or the result of his cowriter thumbing through a thesaurus.
