I was intrigued by this, because as you know, Talk to Me is one of my favorite songs, so I looked for the interview on YouTube, and I think you may have misheard or misunderstood Jim- he said pretty much right from the beginning he wanted to discuss Talk to Me even though she hadn’t written the song. So he did know Stevie didn’t write it, but he still wanted to ask her about it, specifically about the line “a wound gets worse when it’s treated with neglect.”
This was the first time I’d ever listened to one of his interviews, and he was really good. I presume he was knowledgeable with all his interviewees? Thanks for bringing this up.
