The only place where I know I have a picture of Curry is from that interview Christine did when she's talking about her dog running away and how she was upset at the time. Curry was sitting next to her.

There were some lighting magazine articles. I think Curry worked with them on The Dance tour and SYW tour, but I don't know if he was pictured.

CAH says Curry was spending long nights "visiting" Stevie. She says that Curry was introduced to her by Lindsey as a heartbreaker and her reaction:

"I could see what he meant. If I hadn't been hand-held and spellbound by Lindsey's breath on my neck, I may have succumbed. But he was a tad obvious, despite his chestnut curls and marron-glace eyes. Not for me."

Lindsey said that Curry was Christine's "for now." Carol assured Lindsey that she had no interest in Curry.

Carol "looked into his eyes. Mist blue did it for me, every time, over sickly nut brown. My glance told him I was not really impressed with the opposition."

Later when Curry put his arms around CAH, CAH says that Julie told him not to do that. Julie said Lindsey wouldn't be pleased if he saw that and Curry dropped his arm. Then, Julie convinced her to take a "blow" of cocaine for the first time. She only obliged because she didn't want to look stupid in front of Curry and Julie . [So sick of her making it seem like it was all somebody else's fault].

The last time CAH mentions Curry is at a concert, when Christine dedicated Songbird to him. Ouch, that had to hurt John.

There's a polaroid of him in the 1989 Nicks tourbook.

Stevie dedicated "Landslide" to Curry at the 1980 Bowl show on the first night. She was sleeping with him at that point, I do believe.

And i find it hard to believe that she was faithful to Lindsey the whole time, with the time he spent touring (when she wasn't going with him), and all the handsome guys in her entourage. Really hard to believe. Plus she was pretty. But oh well.

Thanks!! So he was indeed fired, but then what, he came back? If Stevie dedicated Landslide to him in 1980, that means he was still around?

Hi David! Thanks for the information. So Stevie would dedicate "Landslide" that openly to a lover?? Craaazy, considering the 4 other people who were on that stage with her.

I have no idea who the chick in the photo is. She's not named, and there are no other pics of her in the tourbook. And I don't recall having ever seen her before, but who knows....

Well, she obviously knew that people thought she slept with Dennis (Lindsey included) and tried to disabuse readers of that notion in her book. But as far as the drugs, she has to describe the way she was at a concert and rolled up a dollar bill just like Julie showed her and she was so shocked because it actually worked!! Why say that? Just to imply that she wouldn't have known how to snort cocaine at all without Julie's input, which I think is misleading and a subtle attempt to shift blame. Michele

The thing is, when I look at all those pictures with all those guys with big hair, mustaches, and sideburns, I can't tell them apart. Richard, Ken, Curry. I just don't know. Years pass and the hair is cut or fades away and finally they have discernible features.

I know! I always thought Tusk Lindsey was way more attractive than Rumours Lindsey. Same goes for all those guys with the shagged out hair.

Check out the post I wrote on July 2012: http://ledge.fleetwoodmac.net/showthread.php?t=50542. I posted on Youtube the video of Chris playing backgammon and talking about her dog and being a sex symbol in a band, from the Rumours backstage videotape. The guy sitting at her right side is Curry Grant.
