Was not the Chain intro an original Lindsey piece too? Was there not a Buck/Nicks demo of something that was almost identical of the Chain up to the bass and jam part?
Maybe my memory is wrong on that. I was just watching an old interview with Stevie where she almost took the entire credit for the song in the lyrics department. I've heard her say another time that the band just had the bass and jam part and they lifted everything else from her song. But we know Stevie can exaggerate.
Maybe it really was her that taught John that bass part.
The MLJ warmup jam became the intro and verses while Keep Me There became the chorus and ending. Stevie did the lion’s share of the lyrics and John obviously came up with the bass solo.
