I'm not sure of the length of time it was in between the recording of the album and the release date, though. It's been speculated that a lot of overdubs and re-recording took place afterward, so who knows?

Wikipedia says, "Recording began in late 1982, shortly after the end of Fleetwood Mac's Mirage Tour. After the death of her best friend, Robin Anderson, and with new appreciation for her life and career, the recording took only a few months and the album was released in June 1983, preceded by the single "Stand Back", to much critical acclaim."

If late 1982 means Nov or Dec, then that puts it at about 6/7 months for the length of that project from start to release date as well ~ same as this project.

Thanks for the info! I need to listen to the Jim Ladd WH interview. It's an interesting time in terms of her recordings. I love the tracks she recorded with Gordon Perry in Dallas - particularly Destiny.
