Maybe it did. I really loved how youthful & funky she was during the press for "Street Angel." She did a series of interviews on radio (Jim Ladd, WNEW, Museum of TV & Radio, Mark & Brian, etc.) & she was a real pistol. She had it all back for that short time. I guess, as we've learned in retrospect, she wasn't all that pleased with her then-recently finished album, but she was dying to get on the road & was quite the dickens, playing her keyboard & singing along on all these radio shows, joshing around with callers & DJs, etc. I hadn't heard her be quite so fun since 1986.
That was a personality high point for Stevie. Otherwise, she's been fairly morose.
