STEVIE NICKS: And you didn’t even do anything, but you wake up sick to your stomach the next day, thinking that you did. For whatever reasons—which aren’t important—my relationship with Paul (Fishkin, cofounder of Modern Records) stopped, he is the one man in my life that was truly good. Truly understood. I was in an emotional trauma all through that fifteen months. And he stood by and watched it, and was as much help as he could be. While the rest of the world questioned me constantly, including my very close friends. About everything.

I guess that trauma she's talking about was the problematic quartet of Mick, Jenny, Sara Recor, & Stevie.

Also, it's always been my view that Stevie's guest appearance at the Roxy in early 1978 with Todd Rundgren was prompted or arranged by Paul Fishkin. Fishkin was a close friend of Todd's, & Todd even wrote "We Gotta Get You a Woman" for Paul.
