The demo might be from 1975, but does that mean she recorded with Don then, or later? I'm thinking later, but of course I don't know for sure. For some reason I really don't think she had met Don by then. Where's an Eagles expert when you need one? I imagine it's probably in Don's biography when they met, but I haven't read it.
