VMagazine.com Interviews ~ "Totally Stevie" and "The Wild Heart"

[Nikolaj]

Thanks for the correction that it wasn't an outtake photo- I dug out my Rolling Stone Cover to Cover dvd and re-read the article, which was very wordy but oddly had a lot of observations and not a lot of band quotes- I don't think Christine was interviewed at all for it. It mainly covered the band rehearsing for the Tusk tour, I think in Oct. of 79, the issue is dated as very early 1980. Anyone else have the RS dvdrom? I like it, though it isn't the easiest thing for me to navigate it on my iBook G4, a cpl yrs ago when I bought it, I went in and did all the Stevie and Fleetwood Mac searches, but either overlooked or didn't see the full page photo. Thanks.

Stevie was absolutely bricking it there, to say the least, and it shows. I can almost imagine her screaming between shots.

Has anyone ever seen outtakes from this Richard Avedon cover? It probably was even filmed.

Excellent article, with cool inside views of the group. It was before any of us knew who Sharon Celani was, so when the article mentioned Sharon (no last name) & described her as Stevie's beautiful girlfriend, we assumed the pretty brunette shown in one of the photos was that Sharon. But actually it was Sharon Weisz, a band publicist. The satin sports jacket she's wearing with her name embroidered was on sale later at Rockaway Records in Glendale, & I bought it!

In case you don't check nicksfix with any frequency, they have a link to this blog where Stevie describes her look in a few old memorable photos:

Were I John McVie or Chris McVie, I'd have gone right along with it. I would have figured, Big deal. We're about to embark on an enormous tour, & we need the airhead to pull in the crowds (& the revenue). So let's highlight her for all she's worth.

In fact, I'd have requested that the writer, Daisann McLane, emphasize Stevie a lot more in the story itself.

Good business is good business!

oops... I got merged. Sorry! I didn't realize it had already been posted.

Thanks!
