Witchy Woman isn't about Linda or Stevie. Since about 2004, Don Henley has been telling the same story at his solo shows when introducting Witchy Woman. He says the song was inspired by a girl named Patty that he knew in LA....she was into herbal remedies and had a lot of plants in her apartment, according to Don. In some versions of the story he talks about how she offered to help "fix his back" (Henley has back problems from singing and drumming at the same time) and like any young man in the early 70s he willing went home with her and got his "fix".
