Maybe she's only got it on vinyl, so there's even less of a chance she'd actually play it very often ) Sometimes it surprises me how fuzzy Stevie is on the details of her own career... she often flubs the years of her tours and album releases, but then she doesn't study and obsess over that stuff like we do.

The idea that she would have deliberately stopped so as to not take the focus off of Lindsey doesn't really make sense to me... Stevie shines on that song, but if anything he shines far more. She may have written it, but I think Lindsey owns that song. He sings most of the melody and plays that killer guitar. Stevie essentially just sings backup on it, except for the one verse.

I think it's possible she really doesn't remember. Long nets of white, etc . But, I agree... it's more likely that she just didn't want to do it spontaneously.
The guitar part at the end is a personal fave of mine. It also reminds me just a bit of The Chain ( a glimpse of things to come).
Just the way she said it, her body language, etc. told me that Ms. Nicks was telling one of her little fibs.
