I also think with you on this..in The UK, how can I put it, for older buyers...its important that the record's heard on the Radio....to open ears to the fact that she's got a new album out shortly

EXACTLY!!! It might be different in the US but it sure isn't here in the UK. Artists like Stevie are almost guaranteed a place on BBC Radio 2's playlist and yet she isn't on there yet. The Dealer was played last Thursday, the 7th, and was given a lovely introduction saying how Stevie's got a new album coming out and this is the first single and how this is the first listen of the song. The fact that the BBC totally overlooked it is a slap in the face for Stevie as without the BBC, the single won't be played AT ALL. I'm waiting until Saturday to see if The Dealer will be added then, because there's a small chance it could, and if it's not then I'm praying that the next song released will get added and played on BBC Radio 2.
Stevie needs the older generation to know about all of this because many fans of the Rumours and Bella Donna era won't be checking their Twitter accounts and refreshing their Instagram accounts every 5 minutes to get the latest info on the album.
