Dave mentions Stevie's "forthcoming album" in new Billboard article

[OldTimer]

According to Dave's Twitter, he's just arrived in Nashville.

just arrived in Nashville love it

So I guess he's taking a break from her Stevie-ness.

Here's an oddity -- in the article I found (in the Chit Chat forum) about Ringo Starr's 70th birthday bash, it says Dave was one of the attendees. But that was Wednesday, and on Wednesday nite he twittered:

hmmm just felt an earthquake

....which would lead me to believe he was actually in LA at the time. Man, this guy's everywhere!

To all Stevie fans you are in for a crazy ride !

From yesterday:

"Hi , yes Stevie knows and approves the tweets and pics I send out we also read her some replies"

I just posted these comments in another thread about whether Stevie will perform any of the upcoming album in the August shows, but I thought it might be worth mentioning here as well.

The latest album doesn't appear to be finished - depending on who you listen to, either half of it is done or else it's close to completion - so it seems probable that not even a tracklisting has been decided as yet. There is also the other question of whether Stevie has laid down her vocals or not - I'm wondering if that photo of her listening to the rough mixes was on the last night of recording or perhaps earlier during the sessions?
I'm also curious about David Wild's (Rolling Stone writer) comments about the songs being "deeply personal" and featuring "lots of ghosts (and) vampires" if the vocals haven't been laid down as yet. It's possible he's listened to the demos as well or perhaps read some lyric sheets, but he was commenting on the "work in progresss" so that would suggest that Stevie has perhaps recorded at least some of the vocals. Is anyone (Stewart or Wild) able to clarify the situation?

I know none of us have any idea and it would be total speculation and I also know it's been asking and answered a hundred and one times before but I'm bored so....realistically what old demo do you see possibly coming out of the vaults for this album, if any? I know what my dreams would be but that doesn't make them realistic. Is anything realistic?

Where are these pics he is saying she gives him the ok to put on twitter??

[Janis_no1]

Hey APerfectLie, when in 2007 did she say she wanted to do Lady From The Mountain? Was it in a print article? TV interview? radio interview? I can't find that quote anywhere.

I would love it if she FINALLY recorded that song for an album!

Have you heard the White Widow cover of LFTM?

I haven't... is it available online? Edit: I found it on youtube... not half bad!

I can honestly say I don't think I've listened to this demo before today (I'm not much of a demo fanboy). What's the story behind it? Kinda sounds like a Mirror, Mirror outtake to me. That 3 note progression in the background was lifted directly from Brown Eyes... I like this song already . With the right production, this song could be AWESOME.

Did you listen to the White Widow version or Stevie's demo? I've become obsessed with it since someone posted it here. Downloaded it on iTunes and have been checking out some of their other music. I'm so picky about Stevie covers - don't like most but this one is sensational. They really embrace the overall feeling of the song and make it hauntingly familiar yet still their own.

I listened to both.

Stevie's demo could definitely be epic if placed in the correct producer's and musicians hands. I think the wisdom her modern voice embodies would really be quite moving for this particular song.

The White Widow version is also really fantastic. I always love hearing other artists interpret Stevie/Mac songs. Their Lady From The Mountain is like a slow-burn version of the Stevie demo... I LOVE the way it slowly ramps up to a vocal crescendo. I see the band is partially based out of Austin... I'll definitely have to check out a show sometime! I'm digging the other music on their website!

Well, let me see if I can explain this. Kim Stolz with MTV did an interview with Stevie in 2007.

http://newsroom.mtv.com/2009/04/03/k...cks-interview/

She ends it by saying she has more from the interview in coming days, however the rest of the interview never surfaced. Well I believe it was when Dave started mentioning Stevie on twitter, Kim @replied him and said something to the effect of the fact that she interviewed Stevie in 2007 and Stevie mentioned wanting to record a song called "Lady From the Mountain" and asked if they still planned to record it. I @replied Kim and asked where the rest of her interview was, but she never told me and Dave Stewart never told her if they were still doing LFTM. I wish I could find her actual tweet about it, but she now has her tweets private. Anyway, I have requested to follow her again and I tweeted her again about the rest of her interview, so if I ever learn anything else about it I shall let you guys know!

Boo. So there's not actually an an article/sound bite/etc where STEVIE HERSELF actually says the words "I'd like to record Lady From The Mountain". We just have some girl named Kim, with an incomplete interview, who says that Stevie said that. Hmmmm...

Apparently we do, it just hasn't be published. And I don't think Kim just pulled it out of the sky.

I'd die if Stevie recorded Lady From The Mountain, I think she could totally pull it off today too.

What about All The Beautiful Worlds? I'd be so happy if she polished that one off, it's such an excellent song!
