"I played my guitar & looked up at the Camelback Mountains"

Does anyone remember the radio interview with Stevie where she explained the genesis of "Gold Dust Woman"? She said something about being sick, going into her "Indian mode," & lying back in her bed, where she played her guitar & looked up at the Camelback Mountains.

This aired just a little before her first solo album came out.

There's a street named Gold Dust Lane not too far from there. I always wondered if that inspired her. With Stevie, you never know.
