So true.
Do you think Sugar Daddy was about Birch? Was it about her life with John that he could pick her up in a big fancy car but when it comes to love he better leave her alone because someone was loving her for her? John had a vintage car collection. The Mac rolled up in a big classic old Cadillac when they met Stevie and Lindsey on New Years Eve 1974. Makes you wonder she was talking about John in that song as the Sugar Daddy but Birch was the one giving her love.
It gives these early Chris songs such new perspectives. And what the hell was John thinking when these songs were played in the studio.
Why just seems even sadder now. She was so heartbroken for real.
The miserable recordings of Mystery To Me and Rumours led to the most brilliant albums ever.
