. What is the necklace like? (gold, silver, large, small?)

That's my necklace

I think it kind of looks like the kind of crescent moon necklace Joni Mitchell and Stevie would have clubbed together and made.

Love it. I really want one. I'll have to keep a look out.

If you want a more bohemian style one I would recommend charity shops maybe, or eBay? You get some rarities on there.

Wow, love the necklace! I have one too, but it is smaller and lined with rhinestones.

Mine's pretty dainty the picture doesn't really do it justice, where did you get yours?

I'm at BOA Steakhouse in Santa Monica having lunch. Stevies not here in case you were wondering.

Woah, I've just listened to the White Album all the way through for the first time in ages, and, am I imagining things or does Stevie do some really bloody incredible and shouty backing vocals on I'm So Afraid? I haven't listened to this song for so long that Lindsey's voice totally surprised me

I always wondered about that, especially on those platforms....
Then I got a copy of the Live in Boston show and noticed that on Stand Back, she sets it up with Carlos at the start and uses him as her focal point.. He also lets her know when to stop and go back to the microphone....

There are several little tricks she uses on stage.. But then I think sometimes I would just prefer leaving them as Stevie Magic.......

Great thread BTW

Yep! She 'spots' like a dancer does when they turn. I don't think it's necessarily a trick really.... if you've ever taken dance, that's one of the first things they teach you, so you don't get dizzy and it really becomes second nature.

And Stevie's harmony is SO HIGH on the album version of I'm So Afraid!

I was just looking through some photos from a friend's recent wedding, and realised that my friend Richard looks exactly like Rupert Hine! Of course, he's not at all musical and completely gay, so that's ..... okay, a bit spooky now.

I found it an an antique store, actually! It was like $8, lol.

Hmm. I've been wondering lately, are there any mixes of I'm So Afraid where Stevie's vocal is louder? I'm completely obsessed, but her vocals, whilst incredible, are so quiet. It's been driving me mad.

Some of the live versions have more prominent Stevie vocals. It seems like on some tours she sang on it and some she didn't. The version from The Very Best of, which is a live version from '97 is a version where you can hear her.
Here's a live version of Why from Trod Nossel '75 with some beautiful Stevie backing vocals: http://www.mediafire.com/?dfd33ffgff6ktci
