Stevie may be enchanted by him but I think Lindsey is far too talented a producer to allow Dave's bubble gum crap sound to cross his threshold. Even her die hard fans are complaining about the crappy production and mixing of her latest cd.

I say they shouldn't give into her. It will be interesting to see and hear the sound of just the four members. Remember Mick, Christine and John only wanted just Lindsey to join the band, Stevie just came as excess baggage. Yes, it was the most amazing lineup and yes they all got very rich from it....but they have come a long way since then and have made enough money that they can tell Stevie to go pound sand.....the show can and will go on without her.

Interesting opinion, but just that, an opinion. Stewart couldn't be nearly the hack producer you're claiming here and have In Your Dreams and 24 Karat Gold getting positive reviews. You, personally, don't like it, but objectively there's no evidence he's the "terrible producer" you think.
