Much later, Stevie made her perspective clear to me:
"Suppose Lindsey wasn't playing well on a particular song or something," she said. "As his girlfriend, I should be a comfort to him, right? You know: 'Who cares about it? You're great anyway!' I mean, that's what old ladies do for their men, right? But I couldn't, because I was also frustrated and saying, 'Look, if you could just get your guitar part tight, we could put the vocal on.' I'd be pissed off at him too. There was no way we could get any comfort from each other about what went on in the band. There was no love, because everybody was too nervous. And while we were traveling all the time, none of us had other friends to talk to...."




Ok well here's the accuracy and reliability of Mick's book--- that's a direct quote out of a published interview she did. Verbatim. His books, esp the 2nd one, are a whole lotta pulling quotes from other people's articles. (I think this was ripped out of a RS article, but maybe someone else has a better memory than me)

Oh, and that isn't the line in the song. Mick should be aware of the actual lyrics to a song they've been playing since 1977. And even if he's not, his ghostwriter should actually earn whatever they've been paid by checking really simple facts.
