Stevie & Christine in Nashville

[michelej1]

Tom Moncrieff commented in his Q & A on the demos of Stevie's he worked on saying, among other things:

Generally, Stevie felt that if we fleshed out the songs (produced them a bit) they would be more comprehensible to FM. Some of Stevie's piano parts were very syncopated, and without a groove (or beat) underneath they were very confusing to some people. For some reason I was never confused by that and understood where her bars and structure was going, and so I was able to play parts that made things clearer to the listener, that being FM.
