"Love's A Hard Game To Play" ~ Tidbit of Info!

While in my "Desert Angel" mood this morning, I was compiling songs for a CD of this kinda weird interim era of Stevie's. Listening to the Chris Lord-Alge incredible remix of "Love's A Hard Game To Play", I remembered something I learned about the song, which I wasn't sure if I'd shared with a wider group of fans.

In September 2001, Bret Michaels was interviewed here in Dallas on KLLI on The Pugs & Kelly Show, and I was lucky to call in and be able to ask Bret about STEVIE NICKS on air. He said she was an incredible, beautiful, funny woman that he loved working with.

Bret said they met for a great meal, got a little drunk, and then went to work on the song.

Important: Bret said that Stevie wrote many of the lyrics of the song which he brought in, but she refused to take credit.

He said it was a blast working with Stevie and it was one of the best experiences of his life.

Just thought I'd share. I like the song a lot, just not the circumstances Stevie was forced to do it. The song exists and I think it is important to the overall Stevie timeline.
