iiiii don't know that i believe his account, as many other events in the book come across as pure fantasy. the stevie/studio thing very well may have happened, but the rest IMO was a created memory.

I didn't read Mick's "novel" but I like in the photo history how he describes Fritz as Stevie's Bay area band and Lindsey as just the bass player. Funny, I thought LB was a founding member of Fritz and Stevie was asked to join when the first girl singer and her cousin left for college? I know Javier who took over as leader was also a late comer. A lot of things Mick said in the 80's and early 90's appears to me as reverse tunnel vision. Stevie had the highest public profile then, so Mick naturally focused on her even when his view was a little out of focus. In Rosebud from the 70's he said he heard Lindsey's guitar playing and that's what got him hooked. He never said anything about seeing Stevie first until years later.
