Don't know about Lindsey, but Stevie certainly would have had plenty of songs for them!
And I think in her earlier years, with a good producer, she could have done it. I think she *would* have done it too (two albums in a year). She wanted the career badly. ("I want to be a star...I don't want to be a cleaning lady"). Lindsey might have done it too, if he *had* to. If he wanted it badly enough, and had no other choice. So who knows. It would have been a way for them to be heard and seen and get their foot further in the door.
Once they get older and have more say in their career, they don't need to do even one album every year. But back then I think they and most musician/singers would bust their butt to get started in the business.
And seems like she did great even with:
Tusk 1979 ~followed by a long-ass tour
Bella Donna 1981
Mirage 1982
Wild Heart 1983
Then I think if she didn't start having problems with Jimmy Iovine, Rock A Little would have been out in 1984 instead of 1985. Maybe it was romantic troubles? Who knows. But I heard she started Rock A Little with him, then went to another producer in the middle of it.
