Even if you what you say is true about her lyrics and chords on pre-solo songs, it doesn't explain how Stevie has all these co-written songs later on. Do you think she just handed poems and lyrics over to other songwriters only then, and they did all the chords and whatever you think equals music, but this was never the case for songs she wrote before her solo career? Many of Stevie's songs, as first concieved, are so far removed from the final product that anyone can tell they are not record worthy as written. In the days before Pro Tools it was up to somebody to make them worthy of recording. If that person wanted to get paid you can bet they'd insist on credit for their music. When other people helped her with songs she gave them credit, except Lindsey. I guess we can count Frozen Love, but that's all I know of as co-credited before her solo recordings.
