But Lindsey's comment was made near the beginning of the documentary, immediately after Stevie played the "Phoenix Four" ("Say You Will," "Destiny Rules," "Silver Girl" and "Illume"). She had only just joined the band to begin recording.

It seemed to be later, as they were shopping around to find a record company, that the double album concept became a sticking point and Lindsey felt he "didn't have an ally in the band."
