Good luck on looking for a good copy unless it goes to DVD like others.

well, yeah, but.... Adele was bigger when she got famous ... Stevie was not. Stevie was super tiny and a sex symbol hippie chick. The difference between her at her thin heyday and her heavier, and let's face it, bloated (from the drugs) days was strikingly noticeable. So she was haunted so to speak by her own image from the past-- one she was not shy about showing off in bazillions of photo shoots with Herbie and in her own photo shoots late at night. She really actively crafted her own image, from the hair to the makeup to the costumes to the poses and the rest. Adele came on the scene looking much like she does today, body-wise, so no one is comparing her to a younger, thinner version of herself.
That said, what anyone's size or beauty or plainness has to do with their ability to sing or write great songs is beyond me.
