There are moments - flashes really - where she sounds like the Stevie of Bella Donna. Her song writing is still as good as ever, and she still has that all important charisma and star power.

I totally agree with this. Her voice sounds more nasally now than it ever has and I'm sure it has to do with the deterioration of her nose mixed with her age and the strain she's put on her vocal chords throughout the years.

For those who say Lindsey's voice is shot, I don't agree. I think he sounds better now than he did back in the day. His voice has gotten deeper and richer and he sounds more like a man now. There are a few recordings back in the 70's where he sounds like one of the girls . He really WAS destined to sing with women.
